Detecting gravitational waves from mountains on neutron stars in the Advanced Detector Era

Brynmor Haskell, Maxim Priymak, Alessandro Patruno +3

Rapidly rotating Neutron Stars (NSs) in Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) are thought to be interesting sources of Gravitational Waves (GWs) for current and next generation ground ba…

Cyclotron line signatures of thermal and magnetic mountains from accreting neutron stars

Maxim Priymak, Andrew Melatos, Paul Lasky

Cyclotron resonance scattering features (CRSFs) in the X-ray spectrum of an accreting neutron star are modified differently by accretion mounds sustained by magnetic and thermocomp…

Gravitational radiation from magnetically funnelled supernova fallback onto a magnetar

A. Melatos, M. Priymak

Protomagnetars spun up to millisecond rotation periods by supernova fallback are predicted to radiate gravitational waves via hydrodynamic instabilities for ~ 10^2 s before possibl…

Gravitational waves from rapidly rotating neutron stars

Brynmor Haskell, Nils Andersson, Caroline D`Angelo +8

Rapidly rotating neutron stars in Low Mass X-ray Binaries have been proposed as an interesting source of gravitational waves. In this chapter we present estimates of the gravitatio…

Quadrupole moment of a magnetically confined mountain on an accreting neutron star: effect of the equation of state

M. Priymak, A. Melatos, D. J. B. Payne

Magnetically confined mountains on accreting neutron stars are promising sources of continuous-wave gravitational radiation and are currently the targets of directed searches with…
