Abstract: We derive gravitational waves in a theory with non-local curvature corrections to the Hilbert-Einstein Lagrangian. In addition to the standard two massless tensor modes, with plus and cross polarizations, helicity 2 and angular frequency , we obtain a further scalar massive mode with helicity 0 and angular frequency , whose polarization is transverse. It is a breathing mode, which, at the lowest order of an effective parameter , presents a speed difference between nearly null and null plane waves. Finally, the quasi-Lorentz -invariant class for the non-local gravity is type , according to the Petrov classification. This means that the presence (or absence) of gravitational wave modes is observer-independent.
