Abstract
The Baksan Underground Scintillation Telescope has been operating under the program of searching for neutrino bursts since the middle of 1980. The target is two parts of the facility with the total mass of 240 t. The actual observation time over the period from June 30, 1980, to December 31, 2016, is 31.27 years. No candidate for the stellar core collapse has been detected during the observation period. The upper bound for the mean rate of the supernova core collapse in our Galaxy is 0.074 y\(^{{ - 1}}\) (90% CL).
