contents We study the possibility of probing the dynamical inverse seesaw mechanism for the origin of light neutrino masses via the detection of stochastic gravitational waves (GW) in the low-frequency regime currently being probed by pulsar timing arrays. As the lepton number-violating term in inverse seesaw typically remains in the sub-MeV ballpark, its dynamical origin naturally brings the possibility of a low-scale first-order phase transition, which can be probed at low-frequency GW experiments. We also find interesting complementarity with heavy neutral lepton searches, as GW experiments remain sensitive to parameter space with small active-sterile mixing, which is out of reach for most particle physics experiments.
