Show affiliationsThe recently upgraded AURIGA detector and the LIGO observatory were simultaneously acquiring data for the first time in a 2-weeks period during the LIGO S3 run. This coincidence run motivated a collaborative effort to test search methods for gravitational wave bursts on real data. The adopted method uses broad-band cross correlation for the LIGO interferometers triggered by AURIGA events in the 850-950 Hz band. This paper describes the analysis technique and gives a status report on the search, with emphasis on the tuning procedure. Preliminary network performance and background estimates will be provided.
