چکیده
The ANTARES collaboration is building a deep sea neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea. This detector will cover a sensitive area of typically 0.1 km and will be equipped with about 1000 optical modules. Each of these optical modules consists of a large area photomultiplier and its associated electronics housed in a pressure resistant glass sphere. The design of the ANTARES optical module, which is a key element of the detector, has been finalized following extensive R&D studies and is reviewed here in detail.

The nucleosynthesis and production of radioactive elements in SN 1987A are reviewed. Different methods for estimating the masses of Ni, Ni, and Ti are discussed, and we conclude that broad band photometry in combination with timedependent models for the light curve gives the most reliable estimates.
