Abstract: Theoritically, instable r-mode in neutron star may radiate detectable gravitational waves. In this work,considering the non-Newtonian gravity proposed in the grand unification theories, we numerically calculate the CFS instabilities of r-mode s in the hot neutron stars by using an equation of state with super-soft symmetry energies. The changes of the gravitational radiation time scales and the viscous time scales versus the stellar temperatures are obtained.And according to the constraint of the neutron star observation on the parameter of non-Newtonian gravity, the constraint on the boundary of the instability window is also given. It is found that a stronger non-Newtonian gravity corresponds with a wider r-mode instability window. These results may provide interesting reference for the gravitational wave detection.
