The NANOGrav 12.5-year Data Set: Bayesian Limits on Gravitational Waves from Individual Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

Zaven Arzoumanian, Paul T. Baker, Laura Blecha +75

Pulsar timing array collaborations, such as the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav), are seeking to detect nanohertz gravitational waves emitted…

The NANOGrav 11yr Data Set: Limits on Supermassive Black Hole Binaries in Galaxies within 500Mpc

Zaven Arzoumanian, Paul T. Baker, Adam Brazier +54

Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) should form frequently in galactic nuclei as a result of galaxy mergers. At sub-parsec separations, binaries become strong sources of low-…

A measurement of the Galactic plane mass density from binary pulsar accelerations

Sukanya Chakrabarti, Philip Chang, Michael T. Lam +2

We use compiled high-precision pulsar timing measurements to directly measure the Galactic acceleration of binary pulsars relative to the Solar System barycenter. Given the vertica…

Multi-Messenger Gravitational Wave Searches with Pulsar Timing Arrays: Application to 3C66B Using the NANOGrav 11-year Data Set

Zaven Arzoumanian, Paul T. Baker, Adam Brazier +56

When galaxies merge, the supermassive black holes in their centers may form binaries and, during the process of merger, emit low-frequency gravitational radiation in the process. I…

Twelve Decades: Probing the Interstellar Medium from kiloparsec to sub-AU scales

Dan Stinebring, Shami Chatterjee, Susan E. Clark +15

After a decade of great progress in understanding gas flow into, out of, and through the Milky Way, we are poised to merge observations with simulations to build a comprehensive pi…

The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Limits on Gravitational Waves from Individual Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

K. Aggarwal, Z. Arzoumanian, P. T. Baker +60

Observations indicate that nearly all galaxies contain supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at their centers. When galaxies merge, their component black holes form SMBH binaries (SMBHB…
