The MeerKAT Pulsar Timing Array: Maps of the gravitational-wave sky with the 4.5 year data release
Kathrin Grunthal, Rowina S. Nathan, Eric Thrane +16
In an accompanying publication, the MeerKAT Pulsar Timing Array (MPTA) collaboration reports tentative evidence for the presence of a stochastic gravitational-wave background, foll…
The MeerKAT Pulsar Timing Array: The first search for gravitational waves with the MeerKAT radio telescope
Matthew T. Miles, Ryan M. Shannon, Daniel J. Reardon +22
Pulsar Timing Arrays search for nanohertz-frequency gravitational waves by regularly observing ensembles of millisecond pulsars over many years to look for correlated timing residu…
Model-independent dark matter detection with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
Liam Pinchbeck, Csaba Balazs, Eric Thrane
Searches for annihilating dark matter are often designed with a specific dark matter candidate in mind. However, the space of potential dark matter models is vast, which raises the…
The birth mass function of neutron stars
Zhi-Qiang You, Xingjiang Zhu, Xiaojin Liu +12
The birth mass function of neutron stars encodes rich information about supernova explosions, double star evolution, and properties of matter under extreme conditions. To date, it…
Inferring jet physics from neutron star - black hole mergers with gravitational waves
Teagan A. Clarke, Paul D. Lasky, Eric Thrane
Neutron star - black hole (NSBH) mergers that undergo tidal disruption may launch jets that could power a gamma-ray burst. We use a population of simulated NSBH systems to measure…
Quantifying the coincidence between gravitational waves and fast radio bursts from neutron star - black hole mergers
Teagan A. Clarke, Nikhil Sarin, Eric J. Howell +2
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are mysterious astrophysical transients whose origin and mechanism remain unclear. Compact object mergers may be a promising channel to produce some FRBs.…
No evidence for a dip in the binary black hole mass spectrum
Christian Adamcewicz, Paul D. Lasky, Eric Thrane +1
Stellar models indicate that the core compactness of a star, which is a common proxy for its explodability in a supernova, does not increase monotonically with the star's mass. Rat…
Are all models wrong? Falsifying binary formation models in gravitational-wave astronomy
Lachlan Passenger, Eric Thrane, Paul D. Lasky +3
As the catalogue of gravitational-wave transients grows, several entries appear "exceptional" within the population. Tipping the scales with a total mass of ,…
Systematic errors in searches for nanohertz gravitational waves
Valentina Di Marco, Andrew Zic, Ryan M. Shannon +1
A number of pulsar timing arrays have recently reported preliminary evidence for the existence of a nanohertz frequency gravitational-wave background. These analyses rely on detail…
Precision constraints on the neutron star equation of state with third-generation gravitational-wave observatories
Kris Walker, Rory Smith, Eric Thrane +1
It is currently unknown how matter behaves at the extreme densities found within the cores of neutron stars. Measurements of the neutron star equation of state probe nuclear physic…
GammaBayes: a Bayesian pipeline for dark matter detection with CTA
Liam Pinchbeck, Eric Thrane, Csaba Balazs
We present GammaBayes, a Bayesian Python package for dark matter detection with the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). GammaBayes takes as input the CTA measurements of gamma rays an…
