Non-radial oscillations of neutron stars and the detection of
gravitational waves    [PDF]

Cecilia Chirenti, Patrick R. Silveira, Odylio D. Aguiar

We study the non-radial oscillations of relativistic neutron stars, in particular the (fundamental) f-modes, which are believed to be the most relevant for the gravitational wave emission of perturbed isolated stars. The expected frequencies of the f-modes are compared to the sensitivity range of Mario Schenberg, the Brazilian gravitational wave spherical detector.
