Department-wide colloquium Speaker: Stephen Taylor (Vanderbilt) Title: The Road Ahead For Nanohertz-frequency Gravitational-wave Astrophysics Abstract: The landscape of gravitational-wave astrophysics was recently broadened to encompass the nanohertz-frequency band, where NANOGrav and other pulsar-timing arrays found the tell-tale signature of a stochastic all-sky background of gravitational waves. With this evidence came spectral information that yields insights […]
