Abstract : Neutron stars are superdense and are believed to contain exotic matter in their hot and dense core. As they rotate rapidly an asymmetry in the spherical mass distribution may arise which in turn creates a distortion in the gravitational field outside the star. Thus the isolated neutron stars are one of the most likely celestial objects that emit gravitational waves. We investigate the dependence of the emitted gravitational waves on the state of matter present inside these exotic stars. For this we study neutron stars with exotic matter (antikaons) at finite temperature and at constant entropy values. The equation of state for the same is developed and applied to study the static and rotating configurations of such neutron stars. Using nrotstar code of Lorene software, we then study their various global properties and finally estimate the gravitational wave signal strength that are emitted from such neutron stars.
