==Abstract==

For the past decade the Peoples Republic of China has been increasingly active in the pursuit of High- Frequency Gravitational Wave (HFGW) research. Much of their progress has been during 2008. An epochal achievement was the publication of the theoretical analysis of the Li-Baker HFGW detector in the ''European Physical Journal C'' (Li, et al., 2008), ?Perturbative Photon Fluxes Generated by High-Frequency Gravitational Waves and Their Physical Effects?). Many Chinese scientists and graduate students have participated in these HFGW studies and their contributions are briefly discussed. Some of the key scientists and their institutions are as follows: first from ''Chongqing University'': Zhenyun Fang, Director of the Institute of Theoretical Physics, Xing gang Wu, The Institute of Theoretical Physics, Nan Yang, The Institute of Gravitational Physics; Jun Luo, ''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT">Huazhong University of Science and Technology </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT">(HUST), Wuhan, China, the Head of Gravitational Laboratory, Yang Zhang, </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT">University of Science and Technology of China, </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT">Associate Dean of the College of Sciences, Biao Li, </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT">Institute of Electronic Engineering of China </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT">Academy of Engineering Physics (CAEP), Chief of Microwave Antenna Division, Chuan-Ming Zhou, </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT">Technology Committee of Institute of Electronic Engineering of the CAEP</span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT">, Jie Zhou, </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT">Institute of Electronic Engineering of the CAEP</span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT">, Chief of the Signal Processing Division; Weijia Wen, Department of Physics, </span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT">The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology</span></span>''<span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT"><span style="FONT-SIZE: xx-small; FONT-FAMILY: TimesNewRomanPSMT">.
