Abstract
In this paper, we present polarization states of gravitational waves in modified theories. Particularly, we consider scalar–tensor theory and evaluate the extra polarization modes which appear other than the theory of general relativity. It is found that these metric theories present two extra states of polarization, the breathing massless transverse and massive longitudinal mode in the direction of propagation.
