Long-lived gravitational wave (GW) transients have received interest in the last decade, as the sensitivity of LIGO and Virgo increases. Such signals, lasting between 10 and 1000s, can come from a variety of sources, including accretion disk instabilities around black holes, binary neutron stars post-merger, core-collapse supernovae, non-axisymmetric deformations in isolated neutron stars, and magnetar giant flares. Given the large parameter space and the lack of precisely modeled waveforms, searches must rely on robust detection algorithms, which make few or no assumptions on the nature of the signal. Here we present a new data analysis pipeline to search for long-lived transient GW signals, based on an excess cross-power statistic computed over a network of detectors. It uses a hierarchical strategy that allows to estimate the background quickly and implements several features aimed to increase detection sensitivity by 30% for a wide range of signal morphology compared to an older implementation. We also report upper limits on the GW energy emitted from a search conducted with the pipeline for GW emission around a sample of nearby magnetar giant flares, and discuss detection potential of such sources with second and third-generation detectors.

We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in two sets of data collected by the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston detectors between November 5, 2005 and September 30, 2007, and July 7, 2009 and October 20, 2010,
with a total observational time of 283.0 days and 132.9 days, respectively. The search targets gravitational wave transients of duration 10 - 500 s in a frequency band of 40 - 1000 Hz, with minimal assumptions about the signal waveform, polarization, source direction, or time of occurrence. All candidate triggers were consistent with the expected background; as a result we set 90% confidence upper limits on the rate of long-duration gravitational wave transients for different types of gravitational wave signals. For signals from black hole accretion disk instabilities, we set upper limits on the source rate density between $3.4 times 10^{-5}$ - $9.4 times 10^{-4}$ Mpc$^{-3}$ yr$^{-1}$ at 90% confidence. These are the first results from an all-sky search for unmodeled long-duration transient gravitational waves.
We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational-wave transients in the data from the Advanced LIGO second observation run; we search for gravitational-wave transients of $2~text{--}~ 500$~s duration in the $24 - 2048$,Hz frequency
band with minimal assumptions about signal properties such as waveform morphologies, polarization, sky location or time of occurrence. Targeted signal models include fallback accretion onto neutron stars, broadband chirps from innermost stable circular orbit waves around rotating black holes, eccentric inspiral-merger-ringdown compact binary coalescence waveforms, and other models. The second observation run totals about otwoduration~days of coincident data between November 2016 and August 2017. We find no significant events within the parameter space that we searched, apart from the already-reported binary neutron star merger GW170817. We thus report sensitivity limits on the root-sum-square strain amplitude $h_{mathrm{rss}}$ at $50%$ efficiency. These sensitivity estimates are an improvement relative to the first observing run and also done with an enlarged set of gravitational-wave transient waveforms. Overall, the best search sensitivity is $h_{mathrm{rss}}^{50%}$=$2.7times10^{-22}$~$mathrm{Hz^{-1/2}}$ for a millisecond magnetar model. For eccentric compact binary coalescence signals, the search sensitivity reaches $h_{mathrm{rss}}^{50%}$=$9.6times10^{-22}$~$mathrm{Hz^{-1/2}}$.
We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the data of the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston second generation detectors between September 2015 and January 2016, with a total observational time of 49 days. Th

No significant events were observed. %All candidate triggers were consistent with the expected background, As a result we set 90% confidence upper limits on the rate of long-duration gravitational wave transients for different types of gravitational wave signals.

The field of gravitational-wave astronomy has been opened up by gravitational-wave observations made with interferometric detectors. This review surveys the current state-of-the-art in gravitational-wave detectors and data analysis methods currently
used by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory in the United States and the Virgo Observatory in Italy. These analysis methods will also be used in the recently completed KAGRA Observatory in Japan. Data analysis algorithms are developed to target one of four classes of gravitational waves. Short duration, transient sources include compact binary coalescences, and burst sources originating from poorly modelled or unanticipated sources. Long duration sources include sources which emit continuous signals of consistent frequency, and many unresolved sources forming a stochastic background. A description of potential sources and the search for gravitational waves from each of these classes are detailed.
After the detection of gravitational waves from compact binary coalescences, the search for transient gravitational-wave signals with less well-defined waveforms for which matched filtering is not well-suited is one of the frontiers for gravitational
-wave astronomy. Broadly classified into short $ lesssim 1~$,s and long $ gtrsim 1~$,s duration signals, these signals are expected from a variety of astrophysical processes, including non-axisymmetric deformations in magnetars or eccentric binary black hole coalescences. In this work, we present a search for long-duration gravitational-wave transients from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgos third observing run from April 2019 to March 2020. For this search, we use minimal assumptions for the sky location, event time, waveform morphology, and duration of the source. The search covers the range of $2~text{--}~ 500$~s in duration and a frequency band of $24 - 2048$ Hz. We find no significant triggers within this parameter space; we report sensitivity limits on the signal strength of gravitational waves characterized by the root-sum-square amplitude $h_{mathrm{rss}}$ as a function of waveform morphology. These $h_{mathrm{rss}}$ limits improve upon the results from the second observing run by an average factor of 1.8.
