Constraints on Supermassive Black Hole Binaries from the Lack of Resolvable Sources in the NANOGrav 15-yr Dataset

Emiko C. Gardiner, Kayhan Gültekin, Philippe Turgeon +116

Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) have found evidence of a gravitational wave background (GWB) consistent with a population of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs), but have not yet…

The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Customized Chromatic Noise Models

Bjorn Larsen, Jeremy G. Baier, Daniel J. Oliver +53

Pulsar timing arrays conduct low-frequency gravitational wave searches, which require comprehensive accounting of various noise sources to achieve robust results. Interstellar prop…

Gravity Echoes from Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

Qinyuan Zheng, Bence Bécsy, Chiara M. F. Mingarelli

Pulsar timing arrays record gravitational waves from supermassive black hole binaries at two spacetime points: an Earth term, measured when the wave passes the Earth, and a pulsar…

Pulsar timing arrays: the emerging gravitational-wave landscape

C. M. F. Mingarelli, J. A. Casey-Clyde, Y. T. Chang +8

Pulsar Timing Array (PTA) experiments have entered a new era with evidence for a nanoHertz gravitational wave background (GWB). This review describes the physics of detection, deta…

Gravitational Wave Measurement of the - Intrinsic Scatter at High Redshift

Cayenne Matt, Kayhan Gültekin, Gabriella Agazie +109

The observed GWB spectrum is higher in amplitude than model predictions by a factor of 2-3. Using a semi-analytic model, we evaluate the effect of a high-scatter supermassive black…

Fingerprints of Individual Supermassive Black Hole Binaries in Pulsar Timing Arrays

Chiara M. F. Mingarelli, Bjorn Larsen, Ellis Eisenberg +2

With evidence for a nanoHertz gravitational-wave background now established by Pulsar Timing Arrays, the search focuses on identifying individual supermassive black hole binaries.…
