The stochastic background: scaling laws and time to detection for pulsar timing arrays
Xavier Siemens, Justin Ellis, Fredrick Jenet +1
We derive scaling laws for the signal-to-noise ratio of the optimal cross-correlation statistic, and show that the large power-law increase of the signal-to-noise ratio as a functi…

A Bayesian analysis pipeline for continuous GW sources in the PTA band
Justin Ellis
The direct detection of Gravitational Waves (GWs) by Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs) is very likely within the next decade. While the stochastic GW background is a promising candidate…

An Efficient Approximation to the Likelihood for Gravitational Wave Stochastic Background Detection Using Pulsar Timing Data
Justin Ellis, Xavier Siemens, Rutger van Haasteren
Direct detection of gravitational waves by pulsar timing arrays will become feasible over the next few years. In the low frequency regime ( Hz -- Hz), we expect…
