Following some introductory comments on the fundamentals or first principles governing jointly the emission and absorption of gravitational waves, a list is given of observational targets or goals for gravitational wave astronomy which have been selected from recent critical reviews. Then theoretical studies of plunge radiation and gravitational synchrotron radiation are surveyed, since in this area new techniques are developing rapidly although new observational prospects have not yet been found.
