We study the gravitational radiation associated to the non--radial oscillations of newly born, hot neutron stars. The frequencies and damping times of the relevant quasi--normal modes are computed for two different models of proto--neutron…
Neutron stars are among the densest known objects in the universe and an ideal laboratory for the strange physics of super-condensed matter. While the simultaneously measurements of mass and radius of non-rotating neutron stars may impose…
Targets for ground-based gravitational wave interferometers include continuous, quasiperiodic sources of gravitational radiation, such as isolated, spinning neutron stars. In this work we perform evolution simulations of uniformly rotating,…
We present new results for pulsating neutron stars. We have calculated the eigenfrequencies of the modes that one would expect to be the most important gravitational-wave sources: the fundamental fluid f-mode, the first pressure p-mode and…

Rapid uniformly-rotating neutron stars are expected to be formed for instance in the collapse of some massive stars, the accretion of compact object binaries, and double neutron star mergers. The huge amount of the rotational energy has…
These lectures aim at providing an introduction to the properties of gravitational waves and in particular to those gravitational waves that are expected as a consequence of perturbations of black holes and neutron stars. Imprinted in the…

A strong candidate for a source of gravitational waves is a highly magnetised, rapidly rotating neutron star (magnetar) deformed by internal magnetic stresses. We calculate the mass quadrupole moment by perturbing a zeroth-order hydrostatic…

Mountains on rapidly rotating neutron stars efficiently radiate gravitational waves. The maximum possible size of these mountains depends on the breaking strain of neutron star crust. With multi-million ion molecular dynamics simulations of…
Gravitational waves from neutron-star mergers are expected to provide stringent constraints on the structure of neutron stars. At the same time, recent advances in nuclear theory have enabled reliable calculations of the low density…
We show that gravitational radiation drives an instability in hot young rapidly rotating neutron stars. This instability occurs primarily in the l=2 r-mode and will carry away most of the angular momentum of a rapidly rotating star by…
We investigate a possibility of estimating mass of an isolated rapidly rotating neutron star (NS) from a continuous gravitational wave (GW) signal emitted by the NS. When the GW passes through the gravitational potential of the NS, the GW…
We investigate the gravitational wave background produced by magnetars. The statistical properties of these highly magnetized stars were derived by population synthesis methods and assumed to be also representative of extragalactic objects.…
