Double O-Ne-Mg white dwarfs merging as the source of the Powerfull Gravitational Waves for LIGO/VIRGO type interferometers

Abstract

New strong non-spiralling-in gravitational wave (GW) source for LIGO/VIRGO detectors are proposed. Double O-Ne-Mg white dwarf mergers can produce strong gravitational waves with frequencies in the several hundreds Hz range. Such events can be followed by a Super Nova type Ia.
