The Brazilian spherical antenna (Schenberg) is planned to detect high frequency gravitational waves (GWs) ranging from 3.0 kHz to 3.4 kHz. There is a host of astrophysical sources capable of being detected by the Brazilian antenna, namely: core collapse in supernova events; (proto)neutron stars undergoing hydrodynamical instability; f-mode unstable neutron stars, caused by quakes and oscillations; excitation of the first quadrupole normal mode of 4-9 solar mass black holes; coalescence of neutron stars and/or black holes; exotic sources such as bosonic or strange matter stars rotating at 1.6 kHz; and inspiralling of mini black hole binaries. We here address our study in particular to the neutron stars, which could well become f-mode unstable producing therefore GWs. We estimate, for this particular source of GWs, the event rates that in principle can be detected by Schenberg and by the Dutch Mini-Grail antenna.
