4 pages, 5 figures, contribution for the 30th International Cosmic Ray conference International audience Theoretical predictions for neutrino uxes indicate that km3 scale detectors are needed to detect certain astrophysical sources. The three Mediterranean experiments, ANTARES, NEMO and NESTOR are w...
