Searches for the sources of cosmic rays with the ANTARES neutrino telescope

Abstract

The first years of data from the ANTARES neutrino telescope have been extensively used to search for neutrinos of astrophysical origin. Here we present searches for point-like and extended neutrino sources and the search for a high energy excess over the atmospheric neutrino flux. Exploiting the connection between gamma ray and neutrino emission mechanisms in potential astrophysical cosmic ray accelerators, searches for correlations with gamma ray sources will be discussed using both time integrated and time dependent methods.
