| Abstract: |
With pulsar timing experiments gravitational waves can be detected in much the
same way as with laser interferometers. Primary
source candidates include a postulated stochastic background of gravitational
waves by merging supermassive black hole systems in the cores of galaxies, and
individual such systems. We provide upper limits from current pulsar timing
array experiments, and highlight the technicalities involved in making an
actual detection. As an overview, we describe the pulsar timing data, the
data analysis techniques currently in use to search for these gravitational
waves, and we discuss the potential detectable sources of future pulsar timing
array experiments. |
