Fantastic astrobites article featuring results from my latest first-author paper! I’m using this as an excuse to shamelessly promote our paper, which demonstrates how much we can learn about SMBHB populations and evolution from Continuous Waves and GWB anisotropy. 🔭 arxiv.org/abs/2309.07227

Pulsar timing arrays have found evidence for a low-frequency gravitational wave background (GWB). Assuming the GWB is produced by supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs), the next gravitational...

From William Lamb: Post-detection of a gravitational wave background, pulsar timing arrays could detect individual sources of gravitational waves, called Continuous Waves. Let’s find out what properties we expect them to have! 🔭 astrobites.org/2023/10/12/c...
