Scientific paper

In the coming decade, the LIGO/VIRGO/GEO network of ground-based kilometer-scale laser interferometer gravitational wave detectors will open up a new astronomical window on the Universe: gravitational waves in the frequency band 10 to 10^4 Hz. In addition, if the proposed, 5 million kilometer long, space based interferometer LISA flies, another window will be opened in the frequency band 10^(-4) to 1 Hz. I review the various possible sources that might be detected in these frequency bands, and the information that might be obtainable from observed sources. This article closely parallels my talk at the GR15 conference, but is updated to include discussions of some recent developments.
