Gravity seminar: Prerna Rana, University of Cape Town — Pulsar Timing Arrays and ultra-low-frequency Gravitational Waves
November 22, 2024 @ 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm
Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs) opened a new window in ultra-low-frequency gravitational wave astronomy last year, as global PTA experiments independently reported evidence of a stochastic gravitational-wave background. In this talk, I will give a brief introduction to PTAs and highlight recent findings. I will also focus on details of the Indian PTA (InPTA) experiment – an Indo-Japanese collaboration. I will then move to presenting the latest and second data release of the InPTA experiment (InPTA-DR2). Finally, I will discuss potential science outcomes expected in the future.
