An updated constraint for the Gravitational Wave Background from the Gamma-ray Pulsar Timing Array

Serena Valtolina, Colin J. Clark, Rutger van Haasteren +5

Fermi LAT observations of gamma-ray pulsars can be used to build a pulsar timing array (PTA) experiment to search for gravitational wave (GW) signals at nanohertz frequencies. At t…

Finding Supermassive Black Hole Binary Mergers in Pulsar Timing Array Data

Sharon Mary Tomson, Boris Goncharov, Rutger van Haasteren

Galaxy observations suggest that mergers of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) are rare events, with rates of order one per decade across the observable Universe. We present…

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…

The NANOGrav 15-year Data Set: Evidence for a Gravitational-Wave Background

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +111

We report multiple lines of evidence for a stochastic signal that is correlated among 67 pulsars from the 15-year pulsar-timing data set collected by the North American Nanohertz O…

Modeling the uncertainties of solar-system ephemerides for robust gravitational-wave searches with pulsar timing arrays

M. Vallisneri, S. R. Taylor, J. Simon +61

The regularity of pulsar emissions becomes apparent once we reference the pulses' times of arrivals to the inertial rest frame of the solar system. It follows that errors in the de…

The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Evolution of Gravitational Wave Background Statistics

J. S. Hazboun, J. Simon, S. R. Taylor +60

An ensemble of inspiraling supermassive black hole binaries should produce a stochastic background of very low frequency gravitational waves. This stochastic background is predicte…
