Neutron star oscillations and gravitational waves

Universidade Federal do ABC

Isolated neutron stars can also be promising sources of gravitational waves for future detectors. More recent studies of neutron star oscillations have included new ingredients like realistic equations of state, differential rotation and magnetic fields, among others. Rotational instabilities like the CFS instability can also play an important role. I will discuss some of these ingredients and their relevance for the future detection of gravitational waves.
