Abstract : I will review the physics of gravitational-wave emission in theories of gravity extending General Relativity. I will focus on the possibility of testing these theories with gravitational-wave observations of binary systems of compact objects, both indirect (timing of binary pulars) and direct (ground and space based interferometers).
