An Eclipsing Black Widow Pulsar in NGC 6712
Zhen Yan, Zhi-chen Pan, Scott M. Ransom +9
We report the discovery of the first radio pulsar associated with NGC 6712, an eclipsing black widow (BW) pulsar, J18530842A, found by high-sensitivity searches using the Five-h…
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…
Localizing FRBs through VLBI with the Algonquin Radio Observatory 10-m Telescope
Tomas Cassanelli, Calvin Leung, Mubdi Rahman +38
The CHIME/FRB experiment has detected thousands of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) due to its sensitivity and wide field of view; however, its low angular resolution prevents it from loca…
Profile changes associated with DM events in PSR J1713+0747
Fang Xi Lin, Hsiu-Hsien Lin, Jing Luo +5
Propagation effects in the interstellar medium and intrinsic profile changes can cause variability in the timing of pulsars, which limits the accuracy of fundamental science done v…
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…
