Description
Summary:The current status of an experiment designed to search for neutrino radiation from collapsing stars using the Artyomovsk Liquid Scintillation Detector is described. Observations were conducted from November 1977 to July 2012. The upper limit for the mean rate at which neutrino bursts occur in the Galaxy is found to be f col < 0.0658 events per year at a 90% confidence level. In 35 years of observations, no supernovae were detected in the Galaxy.
