Binaries with White Dwarfs and Dwarf Stars 

A variety of phenomena can produce a stochastic background of gravitational waves arising from the early universe. The conventional measure of the spectrum as a function of frequency / of this stochastic background is given by the function 

Current knowledge of the physics of the early universe is highly speculative, as are the sources of the stochastic background described below. However, gravitational wave astronomy may provide the only method of directly observing the conditions in the universe as early as sec after the big bang (in the HF band) since
