Abstract: Unaddressed existence of extraterrestrial sources of high energy neutrinos was discovered in 2013y. But the most promising addition to supernovae includes objects such as pulsars and closes multiple systems. Relying mainly on its own experience in the search and registration of the seismic response at frequencies of pulsars and close binary stars on Earth and the Moon and using the results to detect solar neutrinos work on the study of modulated neutrino fluxes were continued. The study of the spectra of lunar seismic noise revealed a number of significant spectral peaks that match the frequency to 3-4 significant figures with the frequencies of sending energy pulses from pulsars. At the same time availability of registration of seismic peaks and their characteristics are strongly associated with the shape and depth of the radioactive geological structures of the lithosphere of the Moon. That is the energy of interaction modulated beam of neutrinos from the pulsar radioactive elements Moon differently converted into energy of seismic noise. There have also been recorded seismic peaks well coincides with the period of close binary stars. Some of the peaks previously were registered not only as a purely seismic frequency, but as the frequency inherent to radioactive laboratory sources. It is further confirms their astrophysical neutrino origin and similar search becomes the part of high-energy neutrino astronomy.
