        Astrophysics and detection of gravitational wave signals with PTAs and LISA 45m

        While ground based interferometers continue to amass detections of merging stellar binaries, the scientific community is also looking into expanding our capability to detect gravitational waves (GWs) at lower frequencies, where massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) are expected to be the loudest sources. In particular, the milliHz and nanoHz frequency bands are targeted by the spaceborne Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) and by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) respectively. I will describe the potential of LISA and PTAs to unveil the cosmic population of MBHBs. I will discuss the recent PTA results and their implications and describe the scientific prospects of LISA.
