Sources of gravitational waves
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2001We discuss the characteristic features of the signals emitted by some astrophysical sources of gravitational waves, that are most likely to be seen by gravitational detectors in the near future.

Gravitational waves may reach the Earth in different forms which depend on the nature of the emitting source: they may be short bursts, outcome of a catastrophic event like the gravitational collapse or the coalescence of a binary system; they may be continuous, weak wavetrains emitted by a non axially symmetric, rotating neutron star or by binary ...

Gravitational Wave Verification Sources
2014Ultra-compact binary systems containing white dwarfs dominate the gravitational wave foreground in the mHz frequency range. Many of these binaries are weak gravitational wave sources. However, there are nine systems where the gravitational wave strain is strong enough to make them verification sources for gravitational wave missions, e.g.

Astrophysical Sources of Gravitational Waves
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2000The interferometric detectors of gravitational waves (GW) (such as VIRGO and LIGO) will search for events in a frequency band within a few Hz and a few kHz, where several sources are expected to emit. In this talk we outline briefly the current theoretical knowledge on the emission of GW in events such as the coalescence of compact binaries, the ...

Gravitational waves from seismic sources
Soviet Physics Journal, 1974A fast moving mass radiates part of its energy through gravitational waves. It is possible to consider hurricanes and earthquakes as terrestrial sources of quadrupole gravitational waves. These phenomena have the necessary parameters for the generation of gravitational waves: large quadrupole moments m/r2 and also energies and masses moving with large ...

Gravitational Waves: Origins and Sources
2021Black Hole Binaries merging together certainly emit gravitational waves briefly during their interactions. But is that it?—or have we found or might we soon be finding gravitational waves being generated by other phenomena? The answers to those two questions, in that same order, are emphatically ‘No’ and ‘Yes’.

Compact Sources of Gravitational Waves
2020In this chapter, we describe how compact cosmic objects like white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes are formed. Stars for much of their life produce energy, through nuclear fusion, which is emitted from their surface. In this stage, stars have a fixed size which is maintained by balancing their own gravitational field with the high pressure of ...

Astrophysical Sources of Gravitational Waves
1999Prolog When I was a student of the National College during the years 74–79 every year I eagerly awaited the month of November during which the Bangalore Science Forum celebrated the Science Festival by organising lectures on a variety of topics from liquid crystals to superconductivity and neurology to chromatography.
