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…

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…

A new framework for lightning-fast gravitational wave analysis of pulsar timing data

Aiden Gundersen, Rutger van Haasteren, Neil J. Cornish +2

Pulsar timing array data analysis is computationally expensive, limiting the complexity of models which can be studied. As pulsar timing datasets and their respective models grow i…

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…

Escaping Neal's Funnel: a multi-stage sampling method for hierarchical models

Aiden Gundersen, Neil J. Cornish

Neal's funnel refers to an exponential tapering in probability densities common to Bayesian hierarchical models. Usual sampling methods, such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo, struggle…

Rapid inference for individual binaries and a stochastic background with pulsar timing array data

Aiden Gundersen, Neil J. Cornish

The analysis of pulsar timing array data has provided evidence for a gravitational wave background in the nanohertz band. This raises the question of what is the source of the sign…
