DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Yun Fang (Institute of Fundamental Physics and Quant
 um Technology\, Ningbo University)\nRecent PTA analyses reporting evidence
  for a nanohertz common-spectrum process motivate targeted tests of whethe
 r any anisotropic component of the stochastic gravitational-wave backgroun
 d (SGWB) is correlated with the nearby large-scale structure (LSS)\, as an
 ticipated for an astrophysical background dominated by supermassive black 
 hole binaries. We present the first Bayesian PTA likelihood analysis that 
 embeds an externally observed\, full-sky galaxy-survey LSS template direct
 ly as an overlap-reduction-function (ORF) component. Using the 2MASS Photo
 metric Redshift (2MPZ) galaxy catalog\, we construct low-multipole LSS--co
 rrelated ORF templates in two redshift slices ($0\n\nhttps://indico.itp.ac
