Gravitational Waves from Wobbling Pulsars

arXiv:astro-ph/9410047 · doi:10.1093/mnras/271.1.L31

Abstract

The prospects for detection of gravitational waves from precessing pulsars have been considered by constructing fully relativistic rotating neutron star models and evaluating the expected wave amplitude from a galactic source. For a "typical" neutron matter equation of state and observed rotation rates, it is shown that moderate wobble angles may render an observable signal from a nearby source once the present generation of interferometric antennas becomes operative.
