Phys. Rev. D 6, 1465 – Published 15 September 1972

Abstract

A 30-m laser interferometer has been used in a search for gravitational radiation from the Crab pulsar. The minimum detectable signal would be produced by an incident gravitational flux of $10^{9}$ ergs/sec ${cm}^{2}$ and we find no effect at this level.
