The synergy between gravitational-wave astronomy and pulsar astronomy Zhu, Xingjiang In this talk, I will cover recent discoveries by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors such as LIGO and Virgo, particularly detections of compact binary mergers involving neutron stars. If time permitted, I may also talk about recent results from the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array, a project that aims to detect nanohertz gravitational waves.
