Description

Unknown neutron stars in binary systems might be one of the best sources of continuous gravitational waves (yet to be detected), due to their millisecond rotation rates, the accretion from their companion which can source the required asymmetry, and the vast unexplored parameter space. In this talk we will present the latest search results and will explain which neutron star parameters might be constrained with a future detection.
