Abstract

The status of the neutrino experiment at the Krasnoyarsk underground reactor is presented. A method for energy calibration of the silicon multidetector is described. The sensitive volume of the detector has been investigated. The response functions of the detector for electrons, γ rays, and α particles have been measured. Preliminary results of background measurements using silicon and germanium detectors are reported.
