wrote this article as I found m MRes research poster from last year (I had temp. lost it during the renovations). In my research, I looked at 10 'new' pulsars for the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array project and determined their suitability to use in our searches for the nanohertz-frequency stochastic Gravitational Wave background.

Analysed their intrinsic properties, signal propagation, timing, and then simulated how much significance they add to the array when searching for gravitational waves.
