\item Provide an overview of possible astrophysical sources of GWs (both traditional and new). What kind of a new detector is needed to observe some of the hitherto unobserved sources? Broadly outline the sensitivity and bandwidth required.
\item Describe some of the new methods proposed for GW detection, and compute their sensitivities from first principles. Can you improve their sensitivities or change their frequency band by means of changing design parameters?
\item A recent work has computed 4.5PN accurate gravitational wave flux and binding energy in the post-Newtonian approximation. Compute different post-Newtonian approximants using these inputs. Compute their mismatches. Does the computation of the higher order terms improve the agreement between post-Newtonian and numerical relativity waveforms?
\item Compute the expected frequency spectrum, signal-to-noise ratio, horizon distance and early warning time of various compact binary systems (including black holes, neutron stars and white dwarfs) observable by deci-Hz GW detectors like the LGWA. Describe the science (some new also) gained from such observations.
