The analysis of pulsar timing array data has provided evidence for a gravitational wave background in the nanohertz band. This raises the question of what is the source of the signal, is it astrophysical or cosmological in origin? If the…
The standard noise model in gravitational wave (GW) data analysis assumes detector noise is stationary and Gaussian distributed, with a known power spectral density (PSD) that is usually estimated using clean off-source data. Real GW data…

In 2023, the Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) Collaborations announced the discovery of a gravitational wave background (GWB), predominantly attributed to supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) mergers. However, the detected GWB is several times…
