Mapping the Gravitational-wave Background Across the Spectrum with a Next-Generation Anisotropic Per-frequency Optimal Statistic

Kyle A. Gersbach, Stephen R. Taylor, Bence Bécsy +3

With pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) having observed a gravitational wave background (GWB) at nanohertz frequencies, the focus of the field is shifting towards determining and characte…

Inferring Mbh-Mbulge Evolution from the Gravitational Wave Background

Cayenne Matt, Kayhan Gultekin, Luke Kelley +104

We test the impact of an evolving supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass scaling relation (Mbh-Mbulge) on the predictions for the gravitational wave background (GWB). The observed GWB…

The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Targeted Searches for Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

Nikita Agarwal, Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi +116

We present the first targeted searches for continuous gravitational waves (CWs) from 114 active galactic nuclei (AGN) that may host supermassive black hole binaries, using the NANO…

Rapid Construction of Joint Pulsar Timing Array Datasets: The Lite Method

Bjorn Larsen, Chiara M. F. Mingarelli, Paul T. Baker +41

The International Pulsar Timing Array (IPTA)'s second data release (IPTA DR2) combines decades of observations of 65 millisecond pulsars from 7 radio telescopes. IPTA datasets shou…

The NANOGrav 15-year Data Set: Search for Gravitational Wave Memory

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +102

We present the results of a search for nonlinear gravitational wave memory in the NANOGrav 15-year data set. We find no significant evidence for memory signals in the dataset, with…

PETRA: From the LISA global fit to a catalog of Galactic binaries

Aaron D. Johnson, Javier Roulet, Katerina Chatziioannou +3

The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will detect mHz gravitational waves from many astrophysical sources, including millions of compact binaries in the Galaxy, thousands o…
