The NANOGrav Nine-Year Data Set: Measurement and Interpretation of Variations in Dispersion Measures

M. L. Jones, M. A. McLaughlin, M. T. Lam +21

We analyze dispersion measure (DM) variations of 37 millisecond pulsars in the 9-year NANOGrav data release and constrain the sources of these variations. Variations are significan…

The NANOGrav Nine-Year Data Set: Excess Noise in Millisecond Pulsar Arrival Times

M. T. Lam, J. M. Cordes, S. Chatterjee +22

Gravitational wave astronomy using a pulsar timing array requires high-quality millisecond pulsars, correctable interstellar propagation delays, and high-precision measurements of…

Statistical Analyses for NANOGrav 5-year Timing Residuals

Y. Wang, J. M. Cordes, F. A. Jenet +11

In pulsar timing, timing residuals are the differences between the observed times of arrival and the predictions from the timing model. A comprehensive timing model will produce fe…

The Astropy Problem

Demitri Muna, Michael Alexander, Alice Allen +151

The Astropy Project (http://astropy.org) is, in its own words, "a community effort to develop a single core package for Astronomy in Python and foster interoperability between Pyth…

PSR J1024-0719: A Millisecond Pulsar in an Unusual Long-Period Orbit

D. L. Kaplan, T. Kupfer, D. J. Nice +32

PSR J10240719 is a millisecond pulsar that was long thought to be isolated. However, puzzling results concerning its velocity, distance, and low rotational period derivative hav…

The NANOGrav Nine-year Data Set: Mass and Geometric Measurements of Binary Millisecond Pulsars

Emmanuel Fonseca, Timothy T. Pennucci, Justin A. Ellis +17

We analyze 24 binary radio pulsars in the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) nine-year data set. We make fourteen significant measurements of S…
