Generalized Non-linear Bayesian Pulsar Timing with Enterprise

Andrew R. Kaiser, Jeffrey S. Hazboun, Maura A. McLaughlin +56

In this study, we use the Bayesian methods in the Enterprise package to examine the fully general parameterization of pulsar timing models in tandem with noise. We investigate four…

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…

The NANOGrav 15 yr and 20 yr Datasets: Timing Events and Pulse Shape Changes

Ben Jacobson-Bell, James M. Cordes, Shami Chatterjee +61

The average pulse shape of a pulsar is typically stable over decadal timescales, enabling estimation of pulse times of arrival to better than a small fraction of the pulse width us…

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…

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…

The NANOGrav 15-Year Data Set: Improved Timing Precision With VLBI Astrometric Priors

Sofia V. Sosa Fiscella, Michael T. Lam, Gabriella Agazie +47

Accurate pulsar astrometric estimates play an essential role in almost all high-precision pulsar timing experiments. Traditional pulsar timing techniques refine these estimates by…
