AB  - <jats:p>Pulsar timing array (PTA) observations hinted towards the existence of a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) in the nHz frequency band. Still, the nature of the SGWB signal cannot be confidently inferred from current data, and the leading explanation invokes mergers of supermassive black holes. If confirmed, such discovery would not only represent a turning point in our understanding of astrophysics, but it may severely limit the capability of searching for additional cosmological sources in the nHz frequency range. In this work, we build a simple framework to forecast the sensitivity of future pulsar timing array configurations and assess the parameter estimation of SGWB, which could consist of several contributions. We release the  code , implementing this framework and ready to use.</jats:p>          <jats:sec>            <jats:title/>            <jats:supplementary-material>              <jats:permissions>                <jats:copyright-statement>Published by the American Physical Society</jats:copyright-statement>                <jats:copyright-year>2024</jats:copyright-year>              </jats:permissions>            </jats:supplementary-material>          </jats:sec>

Note to staff:  Adding new publications to a research group

  1. Log in to Symplectic.
  2. Click on Menu > Create Links
  3. Choose what you want to create links between – in this case ‘Publications’ and ‘Organisational structures’.
  4. Choose the organisational structure (research group) into which you want to link the publications and check the box next to it.
  5. Now check the box of any publication you want to add to that group. You can use the filters to find what you want and select multiple publications if necessary. 
  6. Scroll to the bottom and click the blue ‘Create new link’ button to link them.
  7. The publications will be added to the group, and will be displayed on the group publications feed within 24 hours (it is not immediate).

Any problems, talk to Tim Evans or the Faculty Web Team.
