Pulsar Timing Array Scaling for GW Memory and Continuous Waves

ORAL

Abstract

Gravitational Wave detection with Pulsar Timing arrays continous to advance into more sensitive datasets, and as we do the question of how we should tune our PTAs to best enable us to search for GW signals beyond the background is an important one. In this talk I will review the current work being done by myself and others at NANOGrav to answer the question of how GW memory and Continous Waves scale in PTA experiments.
