The NANOGrav 12.5-year Data Set: Chromatic Noise Characterization & Mitigation with Time-Domain Kernels

Jeffrey S. Hazboun, Joseph Simon, Jeremy Baier +64

Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) have recently entered the detection era, quickly moving beyond the goal of simply improving sensitivity at the lowest frequencies for the sake of observ…

Optimal strategies for continuous wave detection in pulsar timing arrays: Realistic pulsar noise and a gravitational wave background

Shashwat C. Sardesai, Gabriel E. Freedman, Sarah J. Vigeland +1

Pulsar timing arrays are sensitive to low-frequency gravitational waves (GWs), such as those produced by supermassive binary black holes at subparsec separations. The incoherent su…

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…

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…

Towards robust gravitational wave detections from individual supermassive black hole binaries

Bence Bécsy, Neil J. Cornish, Polina Petrov +4

The recent discovery of the stochastic gravitational-wave background via pulsar timing arrays will likely be followed by the detection of individual black hole binaries that stand…
