SUMMARY:Spinning neutron stars – striking the right tone - Graham Woan

DESCRIPTION:Neutron stars have enough rotational energy and structural rig
 idity to be powerful and continuous emitters of gravitational radiation.  
 Electromagnetically neutron stars reveal themselves to be stable clocks\, 
 and this may itself be the key to the first detection of gravitational wav
 es.  Here we review how gravitational radiation may be generated by neutro
 n stars and describe some of the methods currently employed to detect this
  radiation directly\, using the LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave detector
