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…

Optimal Strategies for Gravitational Wave Memory Detection in Pulsar Timing Arrays

Jerry P. Sun, Xavier Siemens, Dustin R. Madison

In this work we derive two computationally efficient frequentist detection statistics that can be used in searches for gravitational-wave bursts with memory in pulsar timing data.…

Solving the PTA Data Analysis Problem with a Global Gibbs Scheme

Nima Laal, Stephen R. Taylor, Rutger van Haasteren +2

The announcement in the summer of 2023 about the discovery of evidence for a gravitational wave background (GWB) using pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) has ignited both the PTA and the…

Gravitational-Wave Tests of General Relativity with Ground-Based Detectors and Pulsar-Timing Arrays

Nicolas Yunes, Xavier Siemens, Kent Yagi

This review is focused on tests of Einstein's theory of general relativity with gravitational waves that are detectable by ground-based interferometers and pulsar-timing experiment…
