High precision timing of seven binary millisecond pulsars with the European Pulsar Timing Array

K. Liu, A. Chalumeau, H. Hu +21

Binary millisecond pulsars (MSPs) serve as exceptional astrophysical laboratories for a wide range of astrophysical studies, all of which rely on precise property measurements allo…

Practical approaches to analyzing PTA data: Cosmic strings with six pulsars

Hippolyte Quelquejay Leclere, Pierre Auclair, Stanislav Babak +69

We search for a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) generated by a network of cosmic strings using six millisecond pulsars from Data Release 2 (DR2) of the European Pul…

A glitch in the millisecond pulsar J0613-0200

J. W. McKee, G. H. Janssen, B. W. Stappers +17

We present evidence for a small glitch in the spin evolution of the millisecond pulsar J06130200, using the EPTA Data Release 1.0, combined with Jodrell Bank analogue filterbank…

Limits on anisotropy in the nanohertz stochastic gravitational-wave background

S. R. Taylor, C. M. F. Mingarelli, J. R. Gair +32

The paucity of observed supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) may imply that the gravitational wave background (GWB) from this population is anisotropic, rendering existing ana…

Measuring pulse times of arrival from broadband pulsar observations

K. Liu, G. Desvignes, I. Cognard +7

In recent years, instrumentation enabling pulsar observations with unprecedentedly high fractional bandwidth has been under development which can be used to substantially improve t…

Projected constraints on the cosmic (super)string tension with future gravitational wave detection experiments

Sotirios A. Sanidas, Richard A. Battye, Benjamin W. Stappers

We present projected constraints on the cosmic string tension, , that could be achieved by future gravitational wave detection experiments and express our results as semi-a…

Constraints on cosmic string tension imposed by the limit on the stochastic gravitational wave background from the European Pulsar Timing Array

S. A. Sanidas, R. A. Battye, B. W. Stappers

We investigate the constraints that can be placed on the cosmic string tension by using the current Pulsar Timing Array limits on the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB…

Placing limits on the stochastic gravitational-wave background using European Pulsar Timing Array data

R. van Haasteren, Y. Levin, G. H. Janssen +16

Direct detection of low-frequency gravitational waves ( Hz) is the main goal of pulsar timing array (PTA) projects. One of the main targets for the PTAs is to me…

Gravitational wave astronomy of single sources with a pulsar timing array

K. J. Lee, N. Wex, M. Kramer +5

Abbreviated: We investigate the potential of detecting the gravitational wave from individual binary black hole systems using pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) and calculate the accuracy…
