Scientific paper

The first science run ('S1') of the LIGO interferometers took place during 2002 generating a total of 96 hours of triple coincidence data. The S1 data have been of the highest strain sensitivity and over the largest bandwidth ever attained by interferometers operated in coincidence. Astrophysical searches have been carried out by mainly four working groups looking for different types of gravitational radiation: unmodeled bursts ('untriggered' as well as 'triggered' by GRBs), stochastic background of astrophysical or cosmological origin, continuous waves from known pulsars as well as modeled bursts resulting from binary star inspirals. We present the results of the analysis of the first LIGO science data as performed by the four working groups and we discuss the astrophysical reach of this first observation with the LIGO detectors.
