dc.descriptionWe study acoustic oscillations (eigenfrequencies, velocity distributions, damping times) of normal crusts of strange stars. These oscillations are very specific because of huge density jump at the interface between the normal crust and the strange matter core. The oscillation problem is shown to be self-similar. For a low (but non-zero) multipolarity l the fundamental mode (without radial nodes) has a frequency ~300 Hz and mostly horizontal oscillation velocity; other pressure modes have frequencies >=20 kHz and almost radial oscillation velocities. The latter modes are similar to radial oscillations (have approximately the same frequencies and radial velocity profiles). The oscillation spectrum of strange stars with crust differs from the spectrum of neutron stars. If detected, acoustic oscillations would allow one to discriminate between strange stars with crust and neutron stars and constrain the mass and radius of the star.
