“…The applicability of the acoustic detection technique from a physical standpoint is however not so much related to the attenuation length: an inadequately high absolute noise level may definitely impede its applicability in an inappropriate environment. This is still an unknown issue and solutions to remedy have been proposed [165]. Acoustic detection method .…”

Gigantic neutrino telescopes are primarily designed to search for very high energy neutrino radiation from the cosmos. Neutrinos travel unhindered over cosmological distances and therefore carry unique undistorted information about its production sites: the most powerful accelerators of hadrons in nature. In these lectures, we present the relevant physics motivations and their specifics. We review methodological aspects of neutrino telescopes: the experimental technique, some of the faced problems and the capabilities in terms of discovery potential, effective area, isolation of a signal from atmospheric backgrounds, etc. Instruments and their operation in various media are described. We also mention the instrumental birth and provide an outlook of the detection technique toward very low and ultra-high energies.
