SUMMARY:Physics Colloquium - Shaswat Sardesai
DESCRIPTION:Shashwat Sardesai\, PhD Candidate\, UWM Physics \nCosmic Orchestra: The Gravitational Wave Background \nIn the last year and a half\, the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves\, and their collaborators\, have detected the presence of a gravitational wave background using pulsar timing arrays. These gravitational waves likely arise from supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) and have periods spanning years or decades. \nIn this talk\, I will go over the basics of PTAs\, the different methods to analyze the background\, as well as the projects I have worked on as a member of the NANOGrav collaboration to try and resolve aspects of the GWB. \nThe event flyer is available here.
