Pulse Profile Variability of PSR J1022+1001 in NANOGrav Data
William Fiore, Maura A. McLaughlin, Gabriella Agazie +46
Pulse profile stability is a central assumption of standard pulsar timing methods. Thus, it is important for pulsar timing array experiments such as the North American Nanohertz Ob…
Scintillation Bandwidth Measurements from 23 Pulsars from the AO327 Survey
Sofia Z. Sheikh, Grayce C. Brown, Jackson MacTaggart +15
A pulsar's scintillation bandwidth is inversely proportional to the scattering delay, making accurate measurements of scintillation bandwidth critical to characterize unmitigated d…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Harmonic Analysis of the Pulsar Angular Correlations
Gabriella Agazie, Jeremy G. Baier, Paul T. Baker +86
Pulsar timing array observations have found evidence for an isotropic gravitational wave background with the Hellings-Downs angular correlations, expected from general relativity.…
The NANOGrav 12.5-Year Data Set: Probing Interstellar Turbulence and Precision Pulsar Timing with PSR J1903+0327
Abra Geiger, James M. Cordes, Michael T. Lam +33
Free electrons in the interstellar medium refract and diffract radio waves along multiple paths, resulting in angular and temporal broadening of radio pulses that limits pulsar tim…
The NANOGrav 15 Yr Data Set: Removing Pulsars One by One from the Pulsar Timing Array
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +102
Evidence has emerged for a stochastic signal correlated among 67 pulsars within the 15-year pulsar-timing data set compiled by the NANOGrav collaboration. Similar signals have been…
Inference on inner galaxy structure via gravitational waves from supermassive binaries
Yifan Chen, Matthias Daniel, Daniel J. D'Orazio +107
The detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background by pulsar-timing arrays indicates the presence of a population of supermassive black hole binaries. Although the observe…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Running of the Spectral Index
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +102
The NANOGrav 15-year data provides compelling evidence for a stochastic gravitational-wave (GW) background at nanohertz frequencies. The simplest model-independent approach to char…
Improving Pulsar Timing Precision with Single Pulse Fluence Clustering
Sofia V. Sosa Fiscella, Michael T. Lam, Maura A. McLaughlin
Traditional pulsar timing techniques involve averaging large numbers of single pulses to obtain a high signal-to-noise (S/N) profile, which is matched to a template to measure a ti…
The NANOGrav 15 yr data set: Posterior predictive checks for gravitational-wave detection with pulsar timing arrays
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +99
Pulsar-timing-array experiments have reported evidence for a stochastic background of nanohertz gravitational waves consistent with the signal expected from a population of superma…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Chromatic Gaussian Process Noise Models for Six Pulsars
Bjorn Larsen, Chiara M. F. Mingarelli, Jeffrey S. Hazboun +61
Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) are designed to detect low-frequency gravitational waves (GWs). GWs induce achromatic signals in PTA data, meaning that the timing delays do not depend…
The Pulsar Science Collaboratory: Multi-Epoch Scintillation Studies of Pulsars
Jacob E. Turner, Juan G. Lebron Medina, Zachary Zelensky +13
We report on findings from scintillation analyses using high-cadence observations of eight canonical pulsars with observing baselines ranging from one to three years. We obtain sci…
A Cyclic Spectroscopy Scintillation Study of PSR B1937+21 I. Demonstration of Improved Scintillometry
Jacob E. Turner, Timothy Dolch, James M. Cordes +8
We use cyclic spectroscopy to perform high frequency-resolution analyses of multi-hour baseband Arecibo observations of the millisecond pulsar PSR B1937+21. This technique allows f…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Looking for Signs of Discreteness in the Gravitational-wave Background
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +97
The cosmic merger history of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) is expected to produce a low-frequency gravitational wave background (GWB). Here we investigate how signs of…
