Matter in compact stars is dense enough that transient events within the star could have
sufficiently high energies to produce detectable gravitational waves (GWs). These GWs …

Precise measurement of stellar properties through the observation of continuous
gravitational waves from spinning non-axisymmetric neutron stars can shed light onto new …

Gravitational waves from isolated sources have eluded detection so far. The upper limit of
long-lasting continuous gravitational wave emission can now probe physically motivated …

Spinning neutron stars (NSs) can emit continuous gravitational waves (GWs) that carry a
wealth of information about the compact object. If such a signal is detected, it will provide us …

The next generation of ground-based gravitational-wave interferometers is expected to
generate a bounty of new astrophysical discoveries, with sensitivities and bandwidths …

Rotating neutron stars that support long-lived, non-axisymmetric deformations known as
mountains have long been considered potential sources of gravitational radiation. However …

We use the latest all-sky continuous gravitational-wave (CW) searches to estimate
constraints on the sub-kiloparsec population of unknown neutron stars (NS). We then extend …

Oscillating neutron stars are sources of continuous gravitational waves. We study
analytically the excitation of stellar oscillations by the mechanical impact on the stellar …

We report on a new search for continuous gravitational waves from NS 1987A, the neutron
star born in SN 1987A, using open data from Advanced LIGO and Virgo's third observing run …

Continuous gravitational-wave (CW) signals are long-lasting quasi-monochromatic
gravitational-wave signals expected to be emitted by rapidly rotating non-axisymmetric …
