The most important features of the proposed spherical gravitational wave detectors are closely linked with their symmetry. Hollow spheres share this property with solid ones, considered in the literature so far, and constitute an interesting alternative for the realization of an omnidirectional gravitational wave detector. In this paper we address the problem of how a hollow elastic sphere interacts with an incoming gravitational wave and find an analytical solution for its normal mode spectrum and response, as well as for its energy absorption cross sections. It appears that this shape can be designed having relatively low resonance frequencies (about 200 Hz) yet keeping a large cross section, so its frequency range overlaps with the projected large interferometers. We also apply the obtained results to discuss the performance of a hollow sphere as a detector for a variety of gravitational wave signals.

Halbach Magnetic Weber Bars
Halbach-array field gradients boost the displacement-to-flux readout of a resonant-sphere magnetic Weber bar, projecting ~10^-21/√Hz strain sensitivity near 10 kHz and ~5×10^-20/√Hz broadband at higher frequencies.
