Scientific paper

The sources of the gravitational radiation being searched for in current and planned wave-detection experiments are discussed, in a review based on a lecture presented at the International Symposium on Experimental Gravitational Physics (Guangzou, China, August 3-8, 1987). Topics addressed include theoretical models for estimating source strength; the capabilities of narrow-band and wideband detectors; gravity-wave bursts due to collapse or coalescing binaries; continuous emission due to instability-driven spindown, accreting neutron stars, or lumpy pulsars; and possible sources of the stochastic background. Particular attention is given to the coalescing-binary mechanism and the probability of detecting such radiation using laser interferometric gravitational-wave observatories.
