The NANOGrav 15-year Data Set: Constraints on Supermassive Black Hole Binaries from the Gravitational Wave Background

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +111

The NANOGrav 15-year data set shows evidence for the presence of a low-frequency gravitational-wave background (GWB). While many physical processes can source such low-frequency gr…

The NANOGrav 15-year Data Set: Bayesian Limits on Gravitational Waves from Individual Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +96

Evidence for a low-frequency stochastic gravitational wave background has recently been reported based on analyses of pulsar timing array data. The most likely source of such a bac…

The NANOGrav 15-Year Data Set: Detector Characterization and Noise Budget

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +88

Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) are galactic-scale gravitational wave detectors. Each individual arm, composed of a millisecond pulsar, a radio telescope, and a kiloparsecs-long path,…

The NANOGrav 15-year Data Set: Evidence for a Gravitational-Wave Background

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +111

We report multiple lines of evidence for a stochastic signal that is correlated among 67 pulsars from the 15-year pulsar-timing data set collected by the North American Nanohertz O…

The second data release from the European Pulsar Timing Array: VI. Challenging the ultralight dark matter paradigm

Clemente Smarra, Boris Goncharov, Enrico Barausse +68

Pulsar Timing Array experiments probe the presence of possible scalar or pseudoscalar ultralight dark matter particles through decade-long timing of an ensemble of galactic millise…

The NANOGrav 15-year Gravitational-Wave Background Methods

Aaron D. Johnson, Patrick M. Meyers, Paul T. Baker +93

Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) use an array of millisecond pulsars to search for gravitational waves in the nanohertz regime in pulse time of arrival data. This paper presents rigorou…

Discovery and Timing of Millisecond Pulsars with the Arecibo 327 MHz Drift-Scan Survey

Evan F. Lewis, Timothy E. E. Olszanski, Julia S. Deneva +6

We present the discovery and timing solutions of four millisecond pulsars (MSPs) discovered in the Arecibo 327 MHz Drift-Scan Pulsar Survey. Three of these pulsars are in binary sy…
