Abstract

The International Pulsar Timing Array project combines observations of pulsars from both northern and southern hemisphere observatories with the main aim of detecting ultra-low frequency (~10^-9 -10^-8 Hz) gravitational waves. Here we introduce the project, review the methods used to search for grav...
