We have studied the main features of the gravitational radiation generated by an astrophysical system constituted of three compact objects attracting one another (only via gravitational interaction) in such a manner that stable orbits do exist. We have limited our analysis to systems that can be treated with perturbative methods. We show the profile of the gravitational waves emitted by such systems. These results can be useful within the framework of the new gravitational astronomy which will be made feasible by means of the new generation of gravitational detectors such as LISA in a no longer far future.

Binary black hole mergers are among the most violent events in the Universe, leading to extreme warping of spacetime and copious emission of gravitational radiation. Even though black holes are the most compact objects they are not necessarily the most efficient emitters of gravitational radiation in binary systems. The final black hole resulting from a binary black hole merger retains a significant fraction of the pre-merger orbital energy and angular momentum. A non-vacuum system can in principle shed more of this energy than a black hole merger of equivalent mass. We study these super-emitters through a toy model that accounts for the possibility that the merger creates a compact object that retains a long-lived time-varying quadrupole moment. This toy model can capture the merger of neutron stars, but it can also be used to consider more exotic compact binaries. We hope that this toy model can serve as a guide to more rigorous numerical investigations into these systems.
Future space-borne gravitational-wave detectors will observe the gravitational waves in the milli-Hz. Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals with central supermassive black holes are very important sources that could provide the information of the vicinity of black holes. The event horizon separates the inner region of a black hole and there is nothing that can escape from this region. When the central supermassive compact object is a regular and horizonless rotating boson star, a small body could pass through the center and follow novel types of orbits. These will generate the gravitational waves that can not be obtained in the scenario corresponding to an extreme-mass-ratio inspiral with a central supermassive black hole. This can be used to examine whether a supermassive rotating boson star is present at the centers of galaxies. In this work, we consider an extreme-mass-ratio inspiral system described by a small compact object inspiralling into a central supermassive rotating boson star. Integrating four types of special equatorial geodesics and using the numerical kludge method with quadrupole approximation, we obtain the corresponding gravitational waveforms and find that there are high-frequency gravitational radiation pulses in such system. The frequencies of the gravitational radiation pulses could be in the magnitude of $10^{-1}$Hz and the whole gravitational wave parts are in the milli-Hz. By assuming the masses of the central supermassive rotating boson star and small compact object to be $10^6 M_odot$ and $10 M_odot$ and assuming a distance of $1text{Gpc}$, we show that the gravitational radiation pulses could be detected by the space-borne gravitational-wave detectors. Our results will provide a possible evidence to distinguish the astrophysical compact objects in the galactic centers.
Monopole-antimonopole pairs connected by strings can be formed as topological defects in a sequence of cosmological phase transitions. Such hybrid defects typically decay early in the history of the universe but can still generate an observable background of gravitational waves. We study the spectrum of gravitational radiation from these objects both analytically and numerically, concentrating on the simplest case of an oscillating pair connected by a straight string.
In the quadrupole approximation of General Relativity in the weak-field limit, a time-varying quadrupole moment generates gravitational radiation. Binary orbits are one of the main mechanisms for producing gravitational waves and are the main sources and backgrounds for gravitational-wave detectors across the multi-band spectrum. In this Paper, we introduce additional contributions to the gravitational radiation from close binaries that arise from time-varying masses along with those produced by orbital motion. We derive phase-dependent formulae for these effects in the quadrupolar limit for binary point masses, which reduce to the formulae that Peters and Mathews (1963) derived when the mass of each component is taken to be constant. We show that gravitational radiation from mass variation can be orders of magnitude greater than that of orbital motion.
In this review paper we investigate the connection between gravity and electromagnetism from Faraday to the present day. The particular focus is on the connection between gravitational and electromagnetic radiation. We discuss electromagnetic radiation produced when a gravitational wave passes through a magnetic field. We then discuss the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with gravitational waves via Feynman diagrams of the process $graviton + graviton to photon + photon$. Finally we review recent work on the vacuum production of counterpart electromagnetic radiation by gravitational waves.
