Cataclysmic variables as multimessenger sources: the gravitational wave emission
Published on:

Abstract
The direct detection of gravitational waves has triggered the interest in gravitational wave sources. Cataclysmic variables are binary sources whose expected emission is in the sensitivity band of the forthcoming space based interferometer LISA, scheduled for launch after 2030. I present an estimation of the gravitational wave emission of about one thousand cataclysmic variables, using the distances estimated with the Gaia DR2 parallaxes. The most promising gravitational sources are AM CVn and WZ Sge systems.
