Description

The Baikal-GVD is a large neutrino telescope being under construction in Lake Baikal. Recently it is the largest neutrino telescope operating in Northern Hemisphere. The result of the winter expedition of 2023 is the three-dimensional array of 3 456 photo-sensitive units (optical modules). The data collection is allowed by the design of the experiment while being in a construction phase. In this contribution we review the design and the basic characteristics of the Baikal-GVD detector. Some preliminary results on diffuse neutrino flux measurements with the partially completed detector will be presented.
