This chapter introduces the different classes of compact objects—white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes—that are relevant for gravitational-wave astronomy. The ideas are placed in the context of developing an understanding of the likely endpoint(s) of stellar evolution. Key ideas like Fermi gases and the Chandrasekhar mass are discussed, as is the emergence of general relativity as a cornerstone of astrophysics in the 1950s. Issues associated with different formation channels for, in particular, black holes are considered. The chapter ends with a discussion of the supermassive black holes that are found at the centre of galaxies.

SummaryPrimordial black holes (PBHs) of microscopical size can completely absorb neutron stars (NSs) and white dwarfs (WDs) for less than the Hubble time. NS absorption is accompanied by inverse URCA process giving rise to emission of antineutrino. However considerable part of these antineutrino fails to escape NS being drawn into the growing black hole by accreting NS matter. The final stage of dense WD absorption is accompanied by 1051 erg neutrino burst able to ignite nuclear burning giving rise to supernova-like WD explosion.

AbstractNon-linear oscillations in the accretion disk are favored as an explanation of high-frequency QPOs observed in the light curves of low-mass X-ray binaries containing neutron stars, black holes, or white dwarfs.
