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 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…
Periodicity significance testing with null-signal templates: reassessment of PTF's SMBH binary candidates
Jakob Robnik, Adrian E. Bayer, Maria Charisi +3
Periodograms are widely employed for identifying periodicity in time series data, yet they often struggle to accurately quantify the statistical significance of detected periodic s…
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…
Identifying Host Galaxies of Supermassive Black Hole Binaries Found by PTAs
Polina Petrov, Stephen R. Taylor, Maria Charisi +1
Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) present us with exciting opportunities for multi-messenger science. These systems are thought to form naturally in galaxy mergers and ther…
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…
