Abstract

The subject of these lectures is experimental nonaccelerator neutrino physics. We discuss experiments on solar and atmospheric neutrino flux measurements, as well as experiments devoted to recording the antineutrino on nuclear reactors in the context of determining the parameters of neutrino oscillations. Neutrino geophysics, a new field of science, is overviewed.
