A couple of days ago Einstein@Home issued the last workunits from our first search of LIGO S5 data

A couple of days ago Einstein@Home issued the last workunits from our first search of LIGO S5 data. The post-processing of these results will begin in a few weeks when the last result from these workunits is returned. Meanwhile we are gearing up to begin a new type of more sensitive search (called a hierarchical search). Unfortunately this is not yet ready. In the meantime we are extending the first S5 search to a larger range of spin-down ages than previously. We apologize for some problems that occured in the last few days as we finished one search and started another. We are still coping with some hardware problems, which complicated the transition. For further details please see this message board thread.
