Abstract
On the basis of the calculation of gravitational radiation emission by a linear chain we given a preliminary estimation of the thermal gravitational radiation of lattice structures. Suggesting this as a possible cooling mechanism for neutron stars, we find that the interior of young neutron stars with lattice structure would be cooled down within extremely short times.
