Abstract

Some mechanisms for gravitational radiation from neutron and quark stars are examined. The amplitudes of gravitational waves from a deformed star as it rotates and from an oscillating star during irregular changes in its rotation dynamics are calculated. The feasibility of detecting gravitational waves with existing detectors is discussed. Depending on the character of the signals, when gravitational waves are detected it can be established whether strange quark matter is present in compact gravitational wave sources.
