Should have included this in the video, since it involves members of both NANOGrav and the EPTA. In the intro to GWs video I talked about the Hulse-Taylor binary pulsar. Energy is lost in the system which matches how much should be lost due to GWs. In this new system, we have another binary system which is already spinning very tightly (higher GW emission) and the masses of the two objects involved are very different, providing a new test with a very different parameter range. Again it matches.

Very interesting. What can you say about the recent pulsar/white dwarf system research?
You are doing a good job just carry on we're gonna support you!

Well, congratulations with the new interesting data then!
