Pulsar timing array

Pulsars are very good clocks. If distance between us and

pulsar changes due to grav. wave, can detect it by looking

timing of pulses from pulsar (to about a microsecond--

a millionth of a sec.)

Gravity waves of period months to years. (from birth

of universe or from massive black holes inside galaxies

billions of solar masses).

In progress.
