Latest Results Obtained on the LVD Experiment

The LVD detector, located in the Gran Sasso Laboratory at a depth of 3600 m w.e., is designed for research in the field of neutrino physics, astrophysics, cosmic ray physics and the search for rare processes predicted by theory. The LVD experiment was built in 1991 to detect neutrinos from collapses of stellar nuclei in our galaxy. The background of the detector is atmospheric muons, neutrons generated by muons in the detector material and natural radioactivity underground. The report presents the latest experimental results obtained at LVD: a limit on the frequency of supernova outbreaks, muon variations with a period of 1, 4, 10 years, and also describes the problems of studying the low-energy background underground.
