Given the recent advancements in the field of pulsar timing pertaining to the detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background (GWB), it is now the perfect time to perform tests of gravity via exploration of the correlation signature between the timing data of pairs of pulsars induced by the polarization...
I led a collaborative project involving a search for an evidence of a gravitational wave background (GWB) with all the spatial correlations allowed by general metric theories of gravity using NANOGrav’s 12.5 year data set. The search found no substantial evidence in favor of the existence of such correlations.
The...
