The GEO600 Gravitational Wave Detector -- Pulsar Prospects
G. Woan
The GEO600 laser-interferometric gravitational wave detector near Hannover, Germany, is one of six such interferometers now close to operation worldwide. The UK/German GEO collabor…
The Crustal Rigidity of a Neutron Star, and Implications for PSR 1828-11 and other Precession Candidates
Curt Cutler, Greg Ushomirsky, Bennett Link
We calculate the crustal rigidity parameter, b, of a neutron star (NS), and show that b is a factor 40 smaller than the standard estimate due to Baym & Pines (1971). For a NS with…
LISA, binary stars, and the mass of the graviton
Curt Cutler, William A. Hiscock, Shane L. Larson
We extend and improve earlier estimates of the ability of the proposed LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna) gravitational wave detector to place upper bounds on the graviton m…
Gravitational Waves from Neutron Stars with Large Toroidal B-fields
Curt Cutler
We show that NS's with large toroidal B-fields tend naturally to evolve into potent gravitational-wave (gw) emitters. The toroidal field B_t tends to distort the NS into a prolate…
An Overview of Gravitational-Wave Sources
Curt Cutler, Kip S. Thorne
We review current best estimates of the strength and detectability of the gravitational waves from a variety of sources, for both ground-based and space-based detectors, and we des…
