Explore gravitational wave sources spanning different frequency bands in this 44-minute conference talk from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the diverse astrophysical phenomena that generate gravitational waves across the electromagnetic spectrum, from low-frequency sources detectable by space-based interferometers to high-frequency signals captured by ground-based detectors like LIGO and Virgo. Learn about the theoretical foundations and observational characteristics of various gravitational wave emitters, including binary black hole mergers, neutron star collisions, stellar core collapses, and exotic sources that may be discovered in future observations. Understand how different frequency ranges provide unique insights into cosmic phenomena and contribute to our growing understanding of the universe through multi-messenger astronomy. Gain insights into the current state of gravitational wave detection technology and the scientific implications of observations across multiple frequency bands. This presentation is part of "The Future of Gravitational-Wave Astronomy" discussion meeting, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the first gravitational wave detection and bringing together leading experts to explore emerging challenges and opportunities in gravitational wave physics and astronomy.
