Scientific paper

We discuss the possibility of gravitational wave radiation from isolated rotating and oscillating white dwarfs. White dwarfs are less compact objects then neutron stars, that's why during the rotation they gain more quadruple moment ~10^44-10^47 g cm2. Another advantage of white dwarfs as sources of gravitational radiation is the distance: one can consider them as most close astrophysical sources of gravitational waves. Six different models for gravitational wave radiation from White dwarfs will be presented. Isolated white dwarfs are emitting gravitational waves in medium band frequencies, near 1 Hz. Now-days gravitational wave detectors are working either near 10^2 Hz (ground based detectors) or near 10^-2 Hz (space based detector, in project). The necessity of gravitational wave detector working in deciHz band of frequency spectrum will be underlined.
