Einstein@home is a program that uses your computer's idle time to search for spinning neutron stars (also called pulsars) using data from the LIGO and GEO gravitational wave detectors. Einstein@home is a World Year of Physics 2005 project supported by the American Physical Society (APS) and by a number of international organizations.

After several months of testing, we are now 'throwing open the doors' for general participation. If you would like to take part, please use the Create account link to create an account, and follow the instructions. Einstein@home is available for Windows, Linux and MacOS X computers.

This first production run of Einstein@home carries out a search for pulsars over the entire sky, using the most sensitive 600 hours of data from LIGO's third science run, S3.

Bruce Allen, Professor of Physics, U. of Wisconsin - Milwaukee
Einstein@home Leader for the LIGO Scientific Collaboration


Feb 19, 2005
Einstein@Home was officially launched this morning at the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) meeting in Washington, DC, USA.

Update: a breaker blew and the power for the entire lab was off for several hours. Power returned at 23:30 UTC, but we will be dealing with fallout for a while - the project will probably be down all night and through tomorrow morning. More info in Technical News.

A sudden, unexpected power outage due to a blown breaker shut the whole BOINC project(And Classic) down for several hours (along with all the other projects in the lab). The cause is still unknown (which is scary), so there will be a scheduled power outage in the near future to hunt for electrical problems. We do know this: we just can't seem to catch a break around here.

Once all of the projects are up and running and all of the backlogs are cleared, I will post current progress reports.
In other news,I broke through 50,000 yesterday. :)

The project is down for the weekend. Although we made some diagnostic progress, the servers are still not able to talk to the UPS's. The power in the building is still not trustworthy. There will probably be a power outage next week so that campus can track this down  :(

For anybody reading, I installed the 4.25 manager (GUI) on one box. One of the new things is that it will replace WU's 1 for 1. Another is that the venues (home, work, school) actually work now. There are many other changes, some good,  some bad in this build but nothing I don't think you can't live with.

I will post a new progress report on Sat. since the project seems to be running ok now.

SETI keeps the CPU running at 100% at all times.  Running the game won't increase that.  It (the game) would increase use of other components (video card, HD, CD etc) which might add enough heat to the system that the CPU can't cool quite as well.  Likely games loading the system like that would use 100% of the CPU if SETI were not running and drive the heat up as well.  Sounds like they should a/ clean their existing fans - especially the power supply and CPU fans and b/ consider adding another.

My Athlon XP 3200+ has no problems with heat running SETI and a game at the same time.  But my system does not have a mega video card and does have excessive cooling.

It is possible I had a bad build of W2K, but BOINC is 1 - 2 hours faster per WU under XP pro than W2K  with a 766 celeron in the same box with the same settings. I was using 4.25 under both systems with the 4.09 cli. Does anyone else have information on this?

The cogent link went down at 07:00 UTC (00:00 PDT) this morning. It looks like it may be down all weekend again.

The link is now up but overwhelmed

You might note a "slight" increase in production for the summer months.

I wondered if we would see you ramp it up for a while. As for me, I hope too  as well as soon as classic ends or I knock off a couple more of my goals.  :)

Here are the plans for the future of classic and Boinc. Looks like BOINC will be getting more hardware soon.

Man you guys rock. When I think of how long this Project has been going on, and how you all have Kept It running.... It just bogles my mind.
