Cross-Correlating the Universe: The Gravitational Wave Background and Large-Scale Structure
Federico Semenzato, J. Andrew Casey-Clyde, Chiara M. F. Mingarelli +4
The paper proposes using cross‑correlations between gravitational‑wave background anisotropy maps and galaxy surveys to detect the imprint of unresolved supermassive black‑hole bin…
