Exploring the Gravitational Wave Universe with Pulsar Timing Arrays — •Andrea Mitridate — Imperial College London, London, UK

By tracking the radio emission from a collection of millisecond pulsars, several pulsar timing array collaborations have found evidence for a background of gravitational waves permeating our galaxy. In this talk, I will discuss how we obtained this evidence, the ongoing efforts to identify the source of this signal, and explore its implications for cosmology and astrophysics.
