Abstract

<jats:p>In November 2005, the LIGO interferometer network began data taking for its latest data run (S5). All three interferometers are working at design sensitivities with duty cycles expected to reach 80%. The Hanford 4 km detector regularly achieves a<jats:inline-graphic xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="cqg227189ieqn1.gif"/>neutron star inspiral range of 12 Mpc. The S5 data run will record one year of coincident science data at unprecedented sensitivity ending in mid 2007.</jats:p>
