Abstract

One possible explanation of the solar 160-min oscillations discovered by Severny et al.1 and Brookes et al.2 is that they may be due to excitation by gravitational waves emitted from a nearby binary system. Here we demonstrate that even in the most favourable conditions, the absorption rate of gravitational radiation by the Sun is many orders of magnitude less than is required to overcome the effect of damping in the core.
