    Abstract

    The search for gravitational radiation has entered a new era as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) has reached its initial target sensitivity. Other similar interferometric detectors are also approaching their design goals. There is presently vigorous activity in the gravitational radiation community in the search for signals. Here we review the status of the LIGO search for a stochastic background, and continuous wave signals.
