Abstract

Core share and HTML view are not available for this content. However, as you have access to this content, a full PDF is available via the ‘Save PDF’ action button.

In this presentation, I will outline some of the different ways that neutron stars can generate gravitational waves, discuss recent improvements in modeling the relevant scenarios in the context of improving detector sensitivity, and show how observations are beginning to put interesting “constraints” on our theoretical models.
