We see early signs of a Gravitational Wave background in our combined dataset with European Pulsar Timing Array. These results corroborate with those from NANOGrav PFC and PPTA CSIRO_ATNF OzGrav Read along in this thread to know this discovery was made and it's consequences!

Our second paper combines efforts of European Pulsar Timing Array with the @INPTA_GW and describes a new method to select the preferred set of noise models for every pulsar in our data set. This enables a robust characterisation of single-pulsar noise, which is extremely important for paper 3!

Also check out the great info graphics from InPTA:

Check out this thread by the InPTA colleagues! A lot of info graphics on pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) and the possible sources of the gravitational-wave background these PTAs are now reporting first evidence for.

Absolutely! Truth spoken. It has been a huge team effort and due credits are deserved by everyone.

🔔IceCube results to be published in Science Magazine tomorrow! For the first time, IceCube found evidence of high-energy neutrino emission from our galaxy ➡️ bit.ly/3JBfqYa 📸: IceCube/NSF (Lily Le & Shawn Johnson)/ESO (S. Brunier) #OurGalaxyInNeutrinos

Thanks LIGO India 👍 Foreseeing prospects of our nation to become a global leader in GW astronomy with the combined powers of InPTA & LIGO-India. What a dynamic range can we cover together! #InPTA #LIGOIndia #GravitationalWaves

And thanks to the national media for extensive coverage of InPTA + European Pulsar Timing Array results on the first hints of a cosmic gravitational wave background 🙏 #PTI #PTI_friends #InPTA #EPTA

Pulsar timing array 🔭

We've all been hearing about how the GW background signal for which European Pulsar Timing Array+InPTA,NANOGrav PFC,CSIRO_ATNF, CPTA have evidence for is like a HUM To carry on the music metaphor in pulsar science; We bring you a sonified artistic rendition of our dispersion measure data, for fun!

Thanks @ReinaDelCid for this wonderful rap explaning PTAs as tools to detect nano-Hz GWs! 😊 Loads of love from the InPTA ❤️🤘

The real stars are our seniors who place youngsters upfront and work with silent dedication behind us ❤️ Kudos team InPTA !! ✌️

Thanks Rashmi Sheoran 🔭 Rashmi! 😊 Loads of love from the InPTA ❤️

Thank you Sandhya Ramesh and ThePrintIndia for some of thr most comprehensive coverage of our new results!

Proud moment for India having won 4 Gold and 1 Silver Medals at the 16th International Olympiad on Astronomy and Astrophysics #IOAA2023 held in Chorzów, Poland, from 10 to 20 August, 2023. In the medals tally India is placed in the 2nd position. Congratulations to our team✌️
