abstract = "The first direct measurement of gravitational waves by the LIGO
and Virgo collaborations has opened up new avenues to explore our
Universe. This white paper outlines the challenges and gains
expected in gravitational-wave searches at frequencies above the
LIGO/Virgo band, with a particular focus on Ultra High-Frequency
Gravitational Waves (UHF-GWs), covering the MHz to GHz range. The
absence of known astrophysical sources in this frequency range
provides a unique opportunity to discover physics beyond the
Standard Model operating both in the early and late Universe, and
we highlight some of the most promising gravitational sources. We
review several detector concepts that have been proposed to take
up this challenge, and compare their expected sensitivity with the
signal strength predicted in various models. This report is the
summary of the workshop Challenges and opportunities of
high-frequency gravitational wave detection held at ICTP Trieste,
Italy in October 2019, that set up the stage for the recently
launched Ultra-High-Frequency Gravitational Wave (UHF-GW)
initiative.",
