The characterization of the Advanced LIGO detectors in the second and third observing runs
has increased the sensitivity of the instruments, allowing for a higher number of detectable …

Observations by the current generation of gravitational-wave detectors have been pivotal in
expanding our understanding of the universe. Although tens of exciting compact binary …

In this study, we use simple performance metrics to assess the science capabilities of future
ground-based gravitational-wave detector networks composed of A+ or Voyager upgrades …

Premerger localization of binary neutron stars (BNSs) is one of the most important scientific
goals for the third-generation (3G) gravitational-wave detectors. It will enable the …

We present detailed simulations of the kilonova and gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow and
kilonova luminosity function from black hole–neutron star (BH–NS) mergers, and discuss the …

We present the prospects for the early (pre-merger) detection and localization of compact-
binary coalescences using gravitational waves over the next 10 yr. Early warning can …

We present the prospects for the pre-merger detection and localization of binary neutron star
mergers with third-generation gravitational-wave (GW) observatories. We consider a wide …

In the second work of this series, we explore the optimal search strategy for serendipitous
and gravitational-wave-triggered target-of-opportunity (ToO) observations of kilonovae and …

Premerger gravitational-wave (GW) sky localization of binary neutron star (BNS) and
neutron star–black hole (NSBH) coalescence events would enable telescopes to capture …

The early and precise localization of gravitational waves (GWs) is pivotal in detecting their
electromagnetic (EM) counterparts, especially for binary neutron stars (BNS) and neutron …
