Search for neutrinos from Gamma-Ray Bursts with the Baikal neutrino telescope NT200

Abstract

We present an analysis of neutrinos detected with the Baikal neutrino telescope NT200 for correlations with gamma-ray bursts (GRB). No neutrino events correlated with GRB were observed. Assuming a Waxman-Bahcall spectrum, a neutrino flux upper limit of {\bf $E^2\Phi <1.1\times 10^{-6}c{m}^{-2}{s}^{-1}s{r}^{-1}GeV$} was obtained. We also present the Green's Function fluence limit for this search, which extends two orders of magnitude beyond the energy range of the Super-Kamiokande limit.
