LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, due to launch mid-2035, is a large class space mission by the European Space Agency (ESA). In partnership with NASA and ESA-member sta…
Inference on inner galaxy structure via gravitational waves from supermassive binaries
Yifan Chen, Matthias Daniel, Daniel J. D'Orazio +107
The detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background by pulsar-timing arrays indicates the presence of a population of supermassive black hole binaries. Although the observe…
The NANOGrav 15 Yr Data Set: Removing Pulsars One by One from the Pulsar Timing Array
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +102
Evidence has emerged for a stochastic signal correlated among 67 pulsars within the 15-year pulsar-timing data set compiled by the NANOGrav collaboration. Similar signals have been…
The NANOGrav 15-year Gravitational-Wave Background Methods
Aaron D. Johnson, Patrick M. Meyers, Paul T. Baker +93
Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) use an array of millisecond pulsars to search for gravitational waves in the nanohertz regime in pulse time of arrival data. This paper presents rigorou…
The NANOGrav 15 yr data set: Posterior predictive checks for gravitational-wave detection with pulsar timing arrays
Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +99
Pulsar-timing-array experiments have reported evidence for a stochastic background of nanohertz gravitational waves consistent with the signal expected from a population of superma…
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…
