The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Limits on Gravitational Waves from Individual Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

K. Aggarwal, Z. Arzoumanian, P. T. Baker +60

Observations indicate that nearly all galaxies contain supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at their centers. When galaxies merge, their component black holes form SMBH binaries (SMBHB…

The NANOGrav 12.5-Year Data Set: The Frequency Dependence of Pulse Jitter in Precision Millisecond Pulsars

M. T. Lam, M. A. McLaughlin, Z. Arzoumanian +25

Low-frequency gravitational-wave experiments require the highest timing precision from an array of the most stable millisecond pulsars. Several known sources of noise on short time…

PSR J2234+0611: A new laboratory for stellar evolution

K. Stovall, P. C. C. Freire, J. Antoniadis +30

We report timing results for PSR J2234+0611, a 3.6-ms pulsar in a 32-day, eccentric (e = 0.13) orbit with a helium white dwarf companion discovered as part of the Arecibo Observato…

The NANOGrav 11-year Data Set: Pulsar-timing Constraints On The Stochastic Gravitational-wave Background

Z. Arzoumanian, P. T. Baker, A. Brazier +57

We search for an isotropic stochastic gravitational-wave background (GWB) in the newly released -year dataset from the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Wa…

The NANOGrav 11-year Data Set: High-precision timing of 45 Millisecond Pulsars

Zaven Arzoumanian, Adam Brazier, Sarah Burke-Spolaor +53

We present high-precision timing data over time spans of up to 11 years for 45 millisecond pulsars observed as part of the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Wa…
