Abstract: Possible applications are described for high energy neutrino beams in the production of sound pulses, electrical currents, and electromagnetic fields for study of the Earth and for geological research. Forced conditions which increase the efficiency of the investigations are pointed out: forced beam ejection, modulation, integrated fields, and so forth.
