The high-frequency gravitational-wave band is often discussed primarily in the context of new physics, but realistic Standard-Model foregrounds remain incompletely characterized. We investigate pulsar polar caps as a physically motivated…
Usually, we assume that there is no inhomogeneity isotropic in terms of our location in the universe. This assumption has not been observationally confirmed yet in sufficient accuracy and we need to consider a method to restrict isotropic…

We calculate the gravitational-wave (GW) signatures of detailed 3D core-collapse supernova simulations spanning a range of massive stars. Most of the simulations are carried out to times late enough to capture more than 95% of the total GW…
Gravitational wave observations can potentially measure properties of neutron star equations of state by measuring departures from the point-particle limit of the gravitational waveform produced in the late inspiral of a neutron star…

In this work, we consider the stochastic background of gravitational waves (SBGWs) produced by pre-galactic stars, which form black holes in scenarios of structure formation. The calculation is performed in the framework of hierarchical…
Rotating neutron stars (NSs) are promising sources of gravitational waves (GWs) in the frequency band of ground-based detectors. They are expected to emit quasi-monochromatic, long-duration GW signals, called continuous waves (CWs), due to…
Pop III stars are the first stars in the universe. They do not contain metals and their formation and evolution may be different from that of stars of later generations. In fact, according to the theory of star formation, Pop III stars…
We discuss the gravitational wave background generated by primordial density perturbations evolving during the radiation era. At second-order in a perturbative expansion, density fluctuations produce gravitational waves. We calculate the…
It has recently been suggested that collapse of neutron stars induced by a phase transition to quark matter can be a considerable source of gravitational waves with kHz frequencies. We demonstrate that if about one percent of all neutron…
Gravitational radiation drives an instability in the r-modes of young rapidly rotating neutron stars. This instability is expected to carry away most of the angular momentum of the star by gravitational radiation emission, leaving a star…
We present the first calculation of gravitational wave emission produced in the gravitational collapse of uniformly rotating neutron stars to black holes in fully three-dimensional simulations. The initial stellar models are relativistic…
A stochastic background of gravitational waves is expected to arise from a superposition of a large number of unresolved gravitational-wave sources of astrophysical and cosmological origin. It is expected to carry unique signatures from the…
