Scientific paper

Emission of gravitational radiation from a star that is contracting into a disk is analyzed in the framework of the Thuan-Ostriker (1974) model of a collapsing uniformly rotating spheroid. It is shown that during stellar collapse to a disk, the major portion of energy will be radiated in a burst when the contraction of matter abruptly halts at the moment of flattening. Corresponding formulas are given.
