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…

Investigating the Multiwavelength Emission of Binary SMBH Candidate SDSS J095036.75+512838.1

Cassandra Daniele, Adi Foord, Jessie Runnoe +2

We present results from a multiwavelength study of the binary AGN candidate SDSS J095036.75+512838.1, which was identified as a candidate binary SMBH system due to its significant…

Flip-flop states in X-ray binaries and changing-state AGN

Thomas J. Maccarone, Jessie Runnoe, Gregoire Marcel +4

We show that the flip-flop transitions in X-ray binaries (rapid cycling between different spectral states which are sometimes seen near the global state transition) show a series o…

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…

Spectroscopic Variability of the Broad H Emission Line in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasars

Collin M. Dabbieri, Jessie C. Runnoe, Michael Eracleous +3

We present a catalog of broad H variability properties for all spectra of quasars with and at least two observations included in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data…

The NANOGrav 15 yr Data Set: Piecewise Power-Law Reconstruction of the Gravitational-Wave Background

Gabriella Agazie, Akash Anumarlapudi, Anne M. Archibald +108

The NANOGrav 15-year (NG15) data set provides evidence for a gravitational-wave background (GWB) signal at nanohertz frequencies, which is expected to originate either from a cosmi…
