Young pulsars apparently have a distribution of initial power outputs N (> Po−γ), with 1/2 < γ < 1 and Po ≳ 1038 ergs/sec. Assuming that ultra-high-energy (E ≳ 1015 eV) cosmic-ray nuclei are accelerated at the central pulsar, a young, dense supernova shell can be a powerful source of high-energy neutrinos. With an optical array placed in a volume of one km3 at great ocean depths, as proposed for the DUMAND detector, it is likely that ≳ 103 hadronic and electromagnetic cascades induced by neutrinos would be recorded for a stellar collapse within our Galaxy. Such supernovae occur about 8 times per century. Neutrinos from young supernova shells in the Virgo supercluster would be marginally detectable via neutrinos with N(> Po) ∝ Po−1/2, but unobservable if N(> Po) ∝ Po−1.

In this paper we describe the main results obtained by the MACRO experiment: final stringent upper limits on GUT magnetic monopoles and nuclearites, results on atmospheric neutrino oscillations, high energy muon neutrino astronomy, searches for WIMPs, search for low energy stellar gravitational collapse neutrinos, several studies with high energy downgoing muons and determination of the primary cosmic ray composition at knee energies.
