Description

Gravitational waves emitted by neutron stars in various astrophysical processes, have been shown to carry the imprint of the equation of state (EoS) of matter in the star inner core. I will discuss which are the perspectives of constraining the EoS of dense matter with the Advanced Virgo/LIGO detectors, expected to become operational within a year, and with the next generation of ground-based, interferometric detectors ET.
