Status of GEO 600

Abstract: The German-British laser-interferometric gravitational wave detector GEO 600 is in its 13th year of operation since its first lock in 2001. After participating in science runs with other first generation detectors, GEO\,600 has continued collecting data as an astrowatch instrument with a duty cycle of 62% during the time when the other detectors have gone offline to undergo substantial upgrades. Less invasive upgrades to demonstrate advanced technologies and improve the GEO 600 sensitivity at high frequencies as part of the GEO-HF program have additionally been carried out in parallel to data taking. We report briefly on the status of GEO 600.
