Neutron stars as sources of gravitational waves

Michał Bejger

Published 2018-10-04Version 1

The global network of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors (the Advanced LIGO and the Advanced Virgo) is sensitive at the frequency range corresponding to relativistic stellar-mass compact objects. Among the promising types of gravitational-wave sources are binary systems and rotating, deformed neutron stars. I will describe these sources and present predictions of how their observations will contribute to modern astrophysics in the near future.
