Abstract

We summarize our studies on properties of double neutron starsobservable in gravitational waves and in the radio. Binary populationsynthesis is used to calculate expected masses of neutron stars inbinary systems taking into account the selection efects specific to each method of detection.We discuss recent relativistic results on final phaseof inspiral of neutron star binaries showing how we can imposeconstraints on the equation of state of dense nuclear matter withgravitational wave observations.
