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…
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…
Directional Anisotropic Sensitivity Curves for Pulsar Timing Arrays
Daniel J. Oliver, Jeffrey S. Hazboun, Martine Maggi +2
After two decades of observations, pulsar timing array collaborations have reported strong evidence for a stochastic gravitational wave background, most likely sourced by an inspir…
No persuasive evidence yet of gravitational-wave tails from perturbers along the line of sight in LVK observations
Kuba Kopczuk, Ethan Blake, Matthew F. Carney +7
Observations of compact binary coalescences (CBCs) by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration resulted in 90 events in the first three observing runs. We search the data near the loudes…
Mitigating the Timing Impact of Anomalous Pulse Profile Shape Variability in PSR J1713+0747 with Gaussian Component Modeling
Shania A. Nichols, Michael T. Lam, Gabriella Agazie +31
The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) achieves sub-microsecond timing precision for several millisecond pulsars in its pulsar timing array (PT…
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…
