The NANOGrav Nine-Year Data Set: Measurement and Interpretation of Variations in Dispersion Measures

M. L. Jones, M. A. McLaughlin, M. T. Lam +21

We analyze dispersion measure (DM) variations of 37 millisecond pulsars in the 9-year NANOGrav data release and constrain the sources of these variations. Variations are significan…

The NANOGrav Nine-Year Data Set: Excess Noise in Millisecond Pulsar Arrival Times

M. T. Lam, J. M. Cordes, S. Chatterjee +22

Gravitational wave astronomy using a pulsar timing array requires high-quality millisecond pulsars, correctable interstellar propagation delays, and high-precision measurements of…

The Non-homogeneous Poisson Process for Fast Radio Burst Rates

Earl Lawrence, Scott Vander Wiel, Casey J. Law +2

This paper presents the non-homogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) for modeling the rate of fast radio bursts (FRBs) and other infrequently observed astronomical events. The NHPP, well…

Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts During the First Advanced LIGO Observing Run and Implications for the Origin of GRB 150906B

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, IPN Collaboration +1002

We present the results of the search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with -ray bursts detected during the first observing run of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravi…

Detecting pulsars in the Galactic centre

Kaustubh Rajwade, Duncan Lorimer, Loren Anderson

Although high-sensitivity surveys have revealed a number of highly dispersed pulsars in the inner Galaxy, none have so far been found in the Galactic centre (GC) region, which we d…

Observations of Rotating Radio Transients with the First Station of the Long Wavelength Array

G. B. Taylor, K. Stovall, M. McCrackan +5

Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) are a subclass of pulsars first identified in 2006 that are detected only in searches for single pulses and not through their time averaged emissi…
