dc.description.abstractThe gravitational-wave (GW) sky may include nearby pointlike sources as well as stochastic backgrounds. We perform two directional searches for persistent GWs using data from the LIGO S5 science run: one optimized for pointlike sources and one for arbitrary extended sources. Finding no evidence to support the detection of GWs, we present 90% confidence level (C.L.) upper-limit maps of GW strain power with typical values between 2-20×10p[superscript -50]  strain[superscript 2] Hz[superscript -1] and 5-35×10[superscript -49]  strain[superscript 2] Hz[superscript -1] sr[superscript -1] for pointlike and extended sources, respectively. The latter result is the first of its kind. We also set 90% C.L. limits on the narrow-band root-mean-square GW strain from interesting targets including Sco X-1, SN 1987A and the Galactic center as low as ≈7×10[superscript -25] in the most sensitive frequency range near 160 Hz.en_US
