THE IDENTIFICATION OF DETECTABLE GRAVITATIONAL WAVE SIGNATURES USING THE EINSTEIN FORMALISM FOR VARIOUS CLASSES OF GALACTIC SOURCES
A central result of this thesis is the prediction of short period (transient) GW signatures, using General Relativity. This thesis focused on various LIGO and SKA Gravitational Wave (GW) sources such as collapsing supernovae, rapidly spinning magnetars, the coalescence of compact binary objects and...
