We study how the internal structure of a neutron star and the physical processes that may occur during its evolution affect the quasi-normal mode spectrum, and consequently the gravitational radiation it emits. We discuss whether these modes can be excited and how much energy they should carry for the gravitational signal to be detectable by the first generation of interferometric antennas or by the new generation of high-frequency gravitational detectors, interferometric or resonant, that are under investigation.
