Constraints on Ultralight Scalar and Dark Photon Dark Matter from PPTA-DR3 and EPTA-DR2
Xiao-Song Hu, Siyuan Chen, Kuo Liu +18
The cold dark matter model successfully describes the Universe on large scales, yet faces challenges at sub-galactic scales. Ultralight dark matter (ULDM), with particle masses aro…
Targeted search for eccentric supermassive binary black holes in OJ 287 and nearby galaxy clusters with PPTA DR3
Shi-Yi Zhao, Xingjiang Zhu, Jacob Cardinal Tremblay +19
We perform Bayesian targeted searches for continuous gravitational waves from eccentric supermassive binary black holes (SMBBHs) using the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array third data rel…
A Multimessenger Search for the Supermassive Black Hole Binary in 3C 66B with the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array
Jacob Cardinal Tremblay, Boris Goncharov, Rutger van Haasteren +15
A subparsec supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) at the center of the galaxy 3C 66B is a promising candidate for continuous gravitational-wave searches with pulsar timing arrays…
Frequency- and phase-resolved polarimetry of millisecond pulsars and its application to timing
MaÅgorzata CuryÅo, Andrew Zic, Shuangqiang Wang +16
Pulsar timing is used for a variety of applications including tests of fundamental physics, probing the structure of neutron stars, and detecting nanohertz gravitational waves. Dev…
Searching for Anisotropy in the Gravitational Wave Background Using the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array
Yiqin Chen, Shi-Yi Zhao, Zhi-Zhang Peng +17
In recent years, several pulsar timing array collaborations have reported evidence for a nanohertz gravitational wave background (GWB). Such a background signal could be produced b…
Search for Gravitational Wave Memory in PPTA and EPTA Data: A Complete Signal Model
Sharon Mary Tomson, Boris Goncharov, Rutger van Haasteren +21
We perform searches for gravitational wave memory in the data of two major Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments located in Europe and Australia. Supermassive black hole binaries (…
