Binary neutron star formation and the origin of GW170817
K. Belczynski, T. Bulik, A. Olejak +11
The first neutron star-neutron star merger was detected in by LIGO/Virgo in a galaxy in which the majority of star formation was taking place a long time ago (11 Gyr). LIGO/Virgo e…
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…
The NANOGrav 11-year Data Set: Pulse Profile Variability
P. R. Brook, A. Karastergiou, M. A. McLaughlin +30
Access to 50 years of data has led to the discovery of pulsar emission and rotation variability on timescales of months and years. Most of this long-term variability has been seen…
Follow-up Timing of Three GMRT Pulsars
Mayuresh P. Surnis, Bhal Chandra Joshi, Maura A. McLaughlin +3
We report on the results of multi-frequency follow-up observations of three pulsars (PSRs J0026+6320, J2208+5500 and J2217+5733) discovered with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope…
Future prospects for ground-based gravitational wave detectors The Galactic double neutron star merger rate revisited
Nihan Pol, Maura McLaughlin, Duncan R. Lorimer
We present the Galactic merger rate for double neutron star (DNS) binaries using the observed sample of eight DNS systems merging within a Hubble time. This sample includes the rec…
Radio Properties of Rotating Radio Transients: Single Pulse Spectral and Wait Time Analyses
Brent Shapiro-Albert, Maura McLaughlin, Evan Keane
Rotating radio transients (RRATs) are a sub-class of pulsars characterized by sporadic emission and thus can generally only be studied by analysis of their single-pulses. Here we p…
