Description

We have entered the advanced era for ground-based gravitational wave detectors in dramatic fashion. The improvement in sensitivity also benefits searches for continuous gravitational waves. Here I summarize the current activities, and plans for the future, of continuous wave searches in Advanced LIGO and Virgo data.
