Gravitational wave background detection and implications

TL;DR

Pulsars as galaxy-wide "sensors" for net gravitational wave background

I don't know if this is the ideal sub-forum for this but I'd like to know more about this very recent activity I first saw here >>>>>'



It looks like this could be some actually testable, actual breakthrough advances in Physics and the evolution of our Universe. Any comments appreciated.

Here is a relevant paper I remember when I would actually read ARXIV once a day!

Google finds http://nanograv.org/ with some background information.

It appears that that organization generates a dataset from the array of pulsars, and other authors attempt to analyze the data and interpret the result. I'm not familiar with the topic, but Google did find https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2020ApJ...900..102A/abstract as one such example, I don't have a complete set of such analsyis or have any idea of how well they analyses have been accepted.
