Constraints on Supermassive Black Hole Binaries from the Lack of Resolvable Sources in the NANOGrav 15-yr Dataset

Emiko C. Gardiner, Kayhan Gültekin, Philippe Turgeon +116

Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) have found evidence of a gravitational wave background (GWB) consistent with a population of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs), but have not yet…

Pulsar Timing Array Sensitivity to Anisotropy: Empirical Sensitivity Curves, Scaling Relations, and the Multi-Resolution Pixel Basis

Taha T. Moursy, Nihan S. Pol, Gabriella Agazie +115

We quantify pulsar timing array (PTA) sensitivity to anisotropy in the gravitational wave background using the cross-correlation based Fisher information matrix in the pixel and sp…

Mitigating the Timing Impact of Anomalous Pulse Profile Shape Variability in PSR J1713+0747 with Gaussian Component Modeling

Shania A. Nichols, Michael T. Lam, Gabriella Agazie +31

The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) achieves sub-microsecond timing precision for several millisecond pulsars in its pulsar timing array (PT…

The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Impacts of Customized Chromatic Noise Models on Gravitational Wave Analyses

Nikita Agarwal, Gabriella Agazie, Alessandra Amosso +120

We report updated nHz gravitational wave (GW) significance, characterization, and interpretations using the customized chromatic-noise models (CNMs) developed in Larsen, Baier et a…

The NANOGrav 15 yr and 20 yr Datasets: Timing Events and Pulse Shape Changes

Ben Jacobson-Bell, James M. Cordes, Shami Chatterjee +61

The average pulse shape of a pulsar is typically stable over decadal timescales, enabling estimation of pulse times of arrival to better than a small fraction of the pulse width us…

Gravitational Wave Measurement of the - Intrinsic Scatter at High Redshift

Cayenne Matt, Kayhan Gültekin, Gabriella Agazie +109

The observed GWB spectrum is higher in amplitude than model predictions by a factor of 2-3. Using a semi-analytic model, we evaluate the effect of a high-scatter supermassive black…
