Description
The next galactic core-collapse supernova will be observed in the
electromagnetic spectrum, in neutrinos, and, for the first time, in
gravitational waves. I review gravitational wave emission from stellar
collapse and the subsequent core-collapse supernova evolution and
discuss how gravitational waves can be used to probe aspects of the
explosion mechanism and physical parameters of the progenitor star.
