Extending the reach of pulsar timing arrays to micro-hertz GW frequencies
POSTER
Abstract
We present a framework that leverages the effect of binary resonance to search for micro-hertz GWs using pulsar timing arrays. We modify the pulsar timing array likelihood to capture the binary resonance effect and calculate the sensitivity of this micro-hertz GW detector using the binary pulsars in the NANOGrav 12.5 year dataset.
