Investigating the Cosmological Rate of Compact Object Mergers from Isolated Massive Binary Stars

Investigating the Cosmological Rate of Compact Object Mergers from Isolated Massive Binary Stars

Gravitational-wave (GW) detectors are observing compact object mergers from increasingly far distances, revealing the redshift evolution of the binary black hole (BBH)—and soon the black hole–neutron star (BHNS) and binary neutron star (BNS)—merger rate. To help interpret these observations, we inve...
