Pulsars

Astronomers propose detecting gravitational wave beats via pulsars

16 अक्टूबर 2025 AI द्वारा रिपोर्ट किया गया

Researchers at Hirosaki University have suggested a method to identify the source of ultra-low-frequency gravitational waves by looking for 'beat' patterns in pulsar signals. This approach could distinguish between waves from cosmic inflation and those from supermassive black hole binaries. The proposal builds on 2023 evidence from pulsar timing arrays that falls short of full confirmation.
