No continuous GW signals detected from eccentric SMBBHs in OJ 287 or nearby clusters; total mass in OJ 287 limited to below 5.25e10 solar masses and high mass-ratio binaries excluded at 10 nHz.
These mass estimates provide the necessary baseline for converting the PTA-derived chirp mass limits into the astrophysical mass-ratio constraints presented in Figure 6
