Scientific paper

The detection of gravitational waves is a realistic goal for kilometer-scale interferometric detectors such as LIGO. I will discuss plans to search for gravitational waves from precessing neutron stars using the first generation of detectors in LIGO. Engineering data from these instruments is already being used to determine upper limits on gravitational waves from various sources, and the transition to science data runs is imminent. Over the next several years, improvements to enhance sensitivity will bring a gradual transition from initial detection to routine astronomical observations. I will comment on searches using these improved detectors and the information about neutron stars that might be extracted from the data.
