Discovery of radio eclipses from 4FGL J1646.54406: a new candidate redback pulsar binary

Andrew Zic, Ziteng Wang, Emil Lenc +9

Large widefield surveys make possible the serendipitous discovery of rare sub-classes of pulsars. One such class are "spider"-type pulsar binaries, comprised of a pulsar in a compa…

Discovery of a young, highly scattered pulsar PSR J1032-5804 with the Australian SKA Pathfinder

Ziteng Wang, David L. Kaplan, Rahul Sengar +7

We report the discovery of a young, highly scattered pulsar in a search for highly circularly polarized radio sources as part of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (A…

Comparing recent PTA results on the nanohertz stochastic gravitational wave background

The International Pulsar Timing Array Collaboration, G. Agazie, J. Antoniadis +242

The Australian, Chinese, European, Indian, and North American pulsar timing array (PTA) collaborations recently reported, at varying levels, evidence for the presence of a nanohert…

The gravitational-wave background null hypothesis: Characterizing noise in millisecond pulsar arrival times with the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array

Daniel J. Reardon, Andrew Zic, Ryan M. Shannon +19

The noise in millisecond pulsar (MSP) timing data can include contributions from observing instruments, the interstellar medium, the solar wind, solar system ephemeris errors, and…

Search for an isotropic gravitational-wave background with the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array

Daniel J. Reardon, Andrew Zic, Ryan M. Shannon +26

Pulsar timing arrays aim to detect nanohertz-frequency gravitational waves (GWs). A background of GWs modulates pulsar arrival times and manifests as a stochastic process, common t…

Radio Variable and Transient Sources on Minute Timescales in the ASKAP Pilot Surveys

Yuanming Wang, Tara Murphy, Emil Lenc +12

We present results from a radio survey for variable and transient sources on 15-min timescales, using the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) pilot surveys. The pilot surveys consist…

The Parkes Pulsar Timing Array Third Data Release

Andrew Zic, Daniel J. Reardon, Agastya Kapur +31

We present the third data release from the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array (PPTA) project. The release contains observations of 32 pulsars obtained using the 64-m Parkes "Murriyang" rad…

Toward robust detections of nanohertz gravitational waves

Valentina Di Marco, Andrew Zic, Matthew T. Miles +3

The recent observation of a common red-noise process in pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) suggests that the detection of nanohertz gravitational waves might be around the corner. However…
