The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Harmonic Analysis of the Pulsar Angular Correlations

Gabriella Agazie, Jeremy G. Baier, Paul T. Baker +86

Pulsar timing array observations have found evidence for an isotropic gravitational wave background with the Hellings-Downs angular correlations, expected from general relativity.…

Periodicity significance testing with null-signal templates: reassessment of PTF's SMBH binary candidates

Jakob Robnik, Adrian E. Bayer, Maria Charisi +3

Periodograms are widely employed for identifying periodicity in time series data, yet they often struggle to accurately quantify the statistical significance of detected periodic s…

Observational Signatures of Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

Daniel J. D'Orazio, Maria Charisi

Despite solid theoretical and observational grounds for the pairing of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) after galaxy mergers, definitive evidence for the existence of close (sub-pa…

The NANOGrav 15-year Data Set: Constraints on Supermassive Black Hole Binaries from the Gravitational Wave Background

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +111

The NANOGrav 15-year data set shows evidence for the presence of a low-frequency gravitational-wave background (GWB). While many physical processes can source such low-frequency gr…
