Scientific paper

We study perturbations of relativistic stars in scalar-tensor theory of gravity and examine the effects of the scalar field on the corresponding oscillation spectrum. Scalar waves which might be produced from such oscillations can be a unique probe for the theory, but their detectability is questionable if the radiated energy is small. However we show that there is no need for a direct observation of scalar waves: the shift in the gravitational wave spectrum could unambiguously signal the presence of a scalar field.
