Gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars

Abstract

Continuous wave gravitational radiation from isolated rotating neutron stars is discussed. The general waveform and orders of magnitude for the amplitude are presented for various known pulsars. The specific case of gravitational radiation resulting from the distortion induced by the stellar magnetic field is presented. Finally some preliminary results about the signal from the whole population of neutron stars in the Galaxy are discussed.
