<strong>Gravitational</strong> wave radiation in the JBD theory 167The half height width of S h ( f ) gives the bandwidth of the resonant modef n =f nƔn −1/2 . (11.79)Q nHere, Ɣ n is the ratio of the wideband noise in the nth resonance bandwidthto the narrowband noise.From the resonant-mass detector viewpoint, the chirp signal can be treat<strong>ed</strong>as a transient GW, depositing energy in a timescale short with respect to th<strong>ed</strong>etector damping time. We can then consider constant the Fourier transform ofthe waveform within the band of the detector and write [22]SNR = 2πf n|H ( f n )| 2. (11.80)S h ( f n )The cross sections associat<strong>ed</strong> with the vibrational modes with l = 0 andl = 2, m = 0 are respectively [6]GMv2 sσ (n0) = H nc 3 (11.81)(ω BD + 2)σ (n2) = F n6GMv s2c 3 (ω BD + 2) . (11.82)All parameters entering the previous equation refer to the detector, M is its mass,v s the sound velocity and the constants H n and F n are given in [6]. The signal-tonoise ratio can be calculat<strong>ed</strong> analytically by approximating the waveform with atruncat<strong>ed</strong> Taylor expansion around t = 0, where ω g (t = 0) = ω nl [20, 23]h s (t) ≈ Gξ 0 (t = 0) sin[ω nl t + 1 2( dωdtUsing quantum limit<strong>ed</strong> readout systems, one finally obtains(SNR n ) l=0 =(SNR n ) l=2 =)t=0t 2 ].

This propos<strong>ed</strong> detectorhas resonant frequencies of ω 12 = 2π ×807 rad s −1 and ω 10 = 2π ×1655 rad s −1 .In the case of optimally orient<strong>ed</strong> orbits (inclination angle γ = π/2) and ω BD =600, the inspiralling of two compact objects of 1.4 solar masses each will thenbe detect<strong>ed</strong> with SNR = 1 up to a source distance r(ω 10 ) ≃ 30 kpc andr(ω 12 ) ≃ 30 kpc.
