Notes. Values without brackets come from the TempoNEST fit of DDH or the direct TEMPO2 fit of DDGR. Values with square brackets [...] are derived from the TempoNEST DDH parameters or the direct TEMPO2 DDGR parameters (Mt for DDH and for DDGR). Values with curly brackets {...} are derived from the multiplication of PK density probabilities in DDH or the χ2 mapping probability in DDGR. All Keplerian, spin, position and DM parameters presented for DDGR are taken from the direct TEMPO2 fit. These fits also include a time jump between the APSUSE and PTUSE data-sets, as well as a DM jump (see Appendix A for details).
Taken from the direct TEMPO2 DDGR fit. Variations from the χ2 mapping (Sect. 3) are only of the order of 1/369 ≈ 0.003 (Reduced χ2 = χ2/ degrees of freedom).
Derived through Eq. (2). In the DDGR case, this simple derivation has been chosen instead of the marginalisation of the χ2 mapping due to it being much more constraining.
The first value is the direct DDGR fit, with a Gaussian uncertainty. The second one results from the χ2 mapping of solutions (Sect. 3).
