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…
A Lower Mass Estimate for PSR J0348+0432 Based on CHIME/Pulsar Precision Timing
Alexander Saffer, Emmanuel Fonseca, Scott Ransom +8
The binary pulsar J0348+0432 was previously shown to have a mass of approximately 2\,, based on the combination of radial-velocity and model-dependent mass parameter…
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…
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 Anomalous Acceleration of PSR J2043+1711: Long-Period Orbital Companion or Stellar Flyby?
Thomas Donlon, Sukanya Chakrabarti, Michael T. Lam +53
Based on the rate of change of its orbital period, PSR J2043+1711 has a substantial peculiar acceleration of 3.5 0.8 mm/s/yr, which deviates from the acceleration predicted b…
Constraining the selection corrected luminosity function and total pulse count for radio transients
Fengqiu Adam Dong, Antonio Herrera-Martin, Ingrid Stairs +9
Studying transient phenomena, such as individual pulses from pulsars, has garnered considerable attention in the era of astronomical big data. Of specific interest to this study ar…
Exploring pulsar timing precision: A comparative study of polarization calibration methods for NANOGrav data from the Green Bank Telescope
Lankeswar Dey, Maura A. McLaughlin, Haley M. Wahl +32
Pulsar timing array experiments have recently uncovered evidence for a nanohertz gravitational wave background by precisely timing an ensemble of millisecond pulsars. The next sign…
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 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…
