Gamma ray astronomy with Antares

Abstract

It has been suggested that underwater neutrino telescopes could detect muons from gamma ray showers. Antares' ability to detect high energy muons produced by TeV photons is discussed in the light of a full Monte Carlo study. It is shown that currently known sources would be hardly detectable
