Such a signal would sound something like popcorn popping. Our derivation is based on the somewhat unrealistic assumption that the duration of an event is smaller than the detector time resolution.2 pages, submitted to the Proceedings of the 9th Marcel Grossmann Meeting, Rome, 2-8 July, 2000General Relativity and Quantum CosmologyAstrophysicsDetecting a non-Gaussian stochastic background of gravitational radiationtext
