Observation of a polarized stochastic gravitational-wave background in pulsar-timing-array experiments

چکیده

We study the observation of polarized stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) in pulsar-timing-array experiments. The time residual for an observed pulsar is formulated as a line-of-sight integral that incorporates effects term, from which we construct correlation function between pair pulsars terms overlap reduction functions (ORFs) SGWB intensity and polarization anisotropies. Our formulation provides numerical scheme computing ORFs high multipole moments lowest-moment linear are worked out first time.

Detecting the stochastic gravitational wave background using pulsar timing

The direct detection of gravitational waves is a major goal of current astrophysics. We provide details of a new method for detecting a stochastic background of gravitational waves using pulsar timing data. Our results show that regular timing observations of 40 pulsars each with a timing accuracy of 100 ns will be able to make a direct detection of the predicted stochastic background from coal...

Upper bounds on the low-frequency stochastic gravitational wave background from pulsar timing observations: current limits and future prospects

Using a statistically rigorous analysis method, we place limits on the existence of an isotropic stochastic gravitational wave background using pulsar timing observations. We consider backgrounds whose characteristic strain spectra may be described as a power-law dependence with frequency. Such backgrounds include an astrophysical background produced by coalescing supermassive black-hole binary...

The stochastic gravitational-wave background from massive black hole binary systems: implications for observations with Pulsar Timing Arrays

Massive black hole binary systems, with masses in the range ∼ 10 − 10 M⊙, are among the primary sources of gravitational waves in the frequency window ∼ 10 Hz−0.1Hz. Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs) and the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) are the observational means by which we will be able to observe gravitational radiation from these systems. We carry out a systematic study of the genera...

Observing gravitational wave bursts in pulsar timing measurements

We propose a novel method for observing the gravitational wave signature of super-massive black hole (SMBH) mergers. This method is based on detection of a specific type of gravitational waves, namely gravitational wave burst with memory (BWM), using pulsar timing. We study the unique signature produced by BWM in anomalous pulsar timing residuals. We show that the present day pulsar timing prec...
