Pulsar Timing Arrays and Astrometry: Going Beyond the Hellings-Downs correlation

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Thomas Colas .

The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) opens new avenues for probing the physics of GW sources at nanohertz frequencies. In the same frequency band, astrometric observations may also enable future GW detections. It is therefore important to investigate the potential for cross-correlating these two complementary approaches. Accordingly, I will discuss three topics related to the characterization of the stochastic gravitational-wave background using pulsar timing arrays and astrometry. The potential detection of its kinematic dipole. The prospects for measuring its circular polarization. A new method for identifying the possible presence of scalar polarization in the GW background.
