Abstract

The properties of potential gravitational wave sources like neutron stars, black holes and binary systems are reviewed, as well as the different contributions (stochastic and continuous) to the gravitational wave background. The detectability of these sources by the present generation of laser beam interferometers, which will be fully operational around 2002, is also considered.
