LIGO/LSC Inspiral Analysis Working Group

Since the LSC and Virgo have joined forces on data analysis activities, these pages are now frozen. Ongoing searches for gravitational waves from compact binary systems are performed under the Compact Binary Coalescence group. Please look at that web site for more information about the group, mail lists, and cvs access and other resources.
