Heavy seeds and the first black holes: Insights from the BRAHMA simulations
Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +9
From the luminous quasars at to the recent AGNs revealed by JWST, observations of the earliest black hole (BH) populations can provide unique constraints o…
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…
Dynamics of low-mass black hole seeds in the BRAHMA simulations using subgrid-dynamical friction: Impact on merger-driven black hole growth in the high redshift Universe
Aklant K. Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Luke Z. Kelley +7
We analyze the dynamics of low-mass black hole (BH) seeds in the high-redshift () Universe using a suite of and BRAHMA cosmol…
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…
Signatures of black hole seeding in the local Universe: Predictions from the BRAHMA cosmological simulations
Aklant K Bhowmick, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey +8
The first "seeds" of supermassive black holes (BHs) continue to be an outstanding puzzle, and it is currently unclear whether the imprints of early seed formation survive today. He…
The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Looking for Signs of Discreteness in the Gravitational-wave Background
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +97
The cosmic merger history of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) is expected to produce a low-frequency gravitational wave background (GWB). Here we investigate how signs of…
The NANOGrav 15-year data set: Search for Transverse Polarization Modes in the Gravitational-Wave Background
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +96
Recently we found compelling evidence for a gravitational wave background with Hellings and Downs (HD) correlations in our 15-year data set. These correlations describe gravitation…
Comparing recent PTA results on the nanohertz stochastic gravitational wave background
The International Pulsar Timing Array Collaboration, G. Agazie, J. Antoniadis +242
The Australian, Chinese, European, Indian, and North American pulsar timing array (PTA) collaborations recently reported, at varying levels, evidence for the presence of a nanohert…
