The NANOGrav 15 yr Dataset: Modified Functional Forms for Profile-Evolution Time Delays in Pulsar Timing Models
Sofia V. Sosa Fiscella, Michael T. Lam, Olivia West +49
Radio pulsars exhibit frequency-dependent variations in the shape of their pulse profiles that introduce systematic delays in the observed pulse times of arrival (TOA) across an ob…
Optimal Pulsar Timing Array Strategies with the Deep Synoptic Array
Tyler Cohen, Paul B. Demorest, Jeremy G. Baier +50
Pulsar timing array (PTA) experiments have seen evidence for a nanohertz-frequency gravitational wave background (GWB) through coordinated radio timing observations of millisecond…
Constraints on Supermassive Black Hole Binaries from the Lack of Resolvable Sources in the NANOGrav 15-yr Dataset
Emiko C. Gardiner, Kayhan Gültekin, Philippe Turgeon +116
Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) have found evidence of a gravitational wave background (GWB) consistent with a population of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs), but have not yet…
Generalized Non-linear Bayesian Pulsar Timing with Enterprise
Andrew R. Kaiser, Jeffrey S. Hazboun, Maura A. McLaughlin +56
In this study, we use the Bayesian methods in the Enterprise package to examine the fully general parameterization of pulsar timing models in tandem with noise. We investigate four…
Pulsar Timing Array Sensitivity to Anisotropy: Empirical Sensitivity Curves, Scaling Relations, and the Multi-Resolution Pixel Basis
Taha T. Moursy, Nihan S. Pol, Gabriella Agazie +115
We quantify pulsar timing array (PTA) sensitivity to anisotropy in the gravitational wave background using the cross-correlation based Fisher information matrix in the pixel and sp…
Evaluating the Fourier Approximation in Pulsar Timing Array Analysis
Yongqi Zhang, Hayden Scholz, Ken D. Olum +53
Pulsar timing arrays search for stochastic processes such as gravitational waves by comparing pulse time of arrival data for millisecond pulsars to expectations from a background w…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Customized Chromatic Noise Models
Bjorn Larsen, Jeremy G. Baier, Daniel J. Oliver +53
Pulsar timing arrays conduct low-frequency gravitational wave searches, which require comprehensive accounting of various noise sources to achieve robust results. Interstellar prop…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Impacts of Customized Chromatic Noise Models on Gravitational Wave Analyses
Nikita Agarwal, Gabriella Agazie, Alessandra Amosso +120
We report updated nHz gravitational wave (GW) significance, characterization, and interpretations using the customized chromatic-noise models (CNMs) developed in Larsen, Baier et a…
The NANOGrav 15 yr and 20 yr Datasets: Timing Events and Pulse Shape Changes
Ben Jacobson-Bell, James M. Cordes, Shami Chatterjee +61
The average pulse shape of a pulsar is typically stable over decadal timescales, enabling estimation of pulse times of arrival to better than a small fraction of the pulse width us…
Gravitational Wave Measurement of the - Intrinsic Scatter at High Redshift
Cayenne Matt, Kayhan Gültekin, Gabriella Agazie +109
The observed GWB spectrum is higher in amplitude than model predictions by a factor of 2-3. Using a semi-analytic model, we evaluate the effect of a high-scatter supermassive black…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Piecewise Power-Law Reconstruction of the Gravitational-Wave Background
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +108
The NANOGrav 15-year (NG15) data set provides evidence for a gravitational-wave background (GWB) signal at nanohertz frequencies, which is expected to originate either from a cosmi…
