The Status of GEO 600 |
Abstract _ |
The British-German gravitational-wave detector GEO 600 is part of the international network of laser interferometers now 'on air' around the world. Since the beginning of 2006, the GEO detector collects data with a strain sensitivity as of today around 3*10^-22 / sqrt(Hz) at 500Hz. We report on the general status of GEO 600 and the performance of the detector during the ongoing science run. |
