• In this paper, we describe an analysis of Apollo era lunar seismic data that places an upper limit on an isotropic stochastic gravitational-wave background integrated over a year in the frequency range 0.1\,Hz -- 1\,Hz. We find that because the Moon's ambient noise background is much quieter than that of the Earth, significant improvements over an Earth based analysis were made. We find an upper limit of $\Omega_{\rm GW}<1.2\times 10^{5}$, which is three orders of magnitude smaller than a… CONTINUE READING
