Abstract The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will be a transformative experiment
for gravitational wave astronomy, and, as such, it will offer unique opportunities to address …

Gravitational-wave detections are enabling measurements of the rate of coalescences of
binaries composed of two compact objects—neutron stars and/or black holes. The …

The third Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-3) describes signals detected with
Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo up to the end of their third observing run. Updating the …

We report on the population properties of compact binary mergers inferred from gravitational-
wave observations of these systems during the first three LIGO-Virgo observing runs. The …

With several dozen binary black hole events detected by LIGO-Virgo to date and many more
expected in the next few years, gravitational-wave astronomy is shifting from individual …

Gravitational-wave detectors are starting to reveal the redshift evolution of the binary black
hole (BBH) merger rate, R BBH (z). We make predictions for R BBH (z) as a function of black …

The growing population of binary black holes (BBHs) observed by gravitational wave (GW)
detectors is a potential Rosetta stone for understanding their formation channels. Here, we …

Gravitational-wave (GW) detections are starting to reveal features in the mass distribution of
double compact objects. The lower end of the black hole (BH) mass distribution is especially …

As the number of merging binary black holes observed with ground-based gravitational-
wave detectors grows, increasingly accurate theoretical models are required to compare …

Hierarchical analysis of binary black hole (BBH) detections by the Advanced LIGO and Virgo
detectors has offered an increasingly clear picture of their mass, spin, and redshift …
