title: Acoustic spectroscopy of DNA in the gigahertz range.
abstract: We find a parametric resonance in the gigahertz range of DNA dynamics, generated by pumping hypersound. The resonance may be accompanied by the formation of localized phonon modes due to the random structure of elastic modulii of DNA.
