The NANOGrav 12.5-year data set: Search for Non-Einsteinian Polarization Modes in theGravitational-Wave Background
Zaven Arzoumanian, Paul T. Baker, Harsha Blumer +68
We search NANOGrav's 12.5-year data set for evidence of a gravitational wave background (GWB) with all the spatial correlations allowed by general metric theories of gravity. We fi…
Searching For Gravitational Waves From Cosmological Phase Transitions With The NANOGrav 12.5-year dataset
Zaven Arzoumanian, Paul T. Baker, Harsha Blumer +62
We search for a first-order phase transition gravitational wave signal in 45 pulsars from the NANOGrav 12.5 year dataset. We find that the data can be modeled in terms of a strong…
Refined Mass and Geometric Measurements of the High-Mass PSR J0740+6620
Emmanuel Fonseca, H. Thankful Cromartie, Timothy T. Pennucci +42
We report results from continued timing observations of PSR J0740+6620, a high-mass, 2.8-ms radio pulsar in orbit with a likely ultra-cool white dwarf companion. Our data set consi…
The NANOGrav 11yr Data Set: Limits on Supermassive Black Hole Binaries in Galaxies within 500Mpc
Zaven Arzoumanian, Paul T. Baker, Adam Brazier +54
Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) should form frequently in galactic nuclei as a result of galaxy mergers. At sub-parsec separations, binaries become strong sources of low-…
PINT: A Modern Software Package for Pulsar Timing
Jing Luo, Scott Ransom, Paul Demorest +13
Over the past few decades, the measurement precision of some pulsar-timing experiments has advanced from ~10 us to ~10 ns, revealing many subtle phenomena. Such high precision dema…
