Impact of star formation inhomogeneities on merger rates and interpretation of LIGO results
R. O'Shaughnessy, R. Kopparapu, K. Belczynski
Within the next decade, ground based gravitational wave detectors are in principle capable of determining the compact object merger rate per unit volume of the local universe to be…

Constraining population synthesis models via empirical binary compact object merger and supernovae rates
R. O'Shaughnessy, C. Kim, V. Kalogera +1
The observed samples of supernovae (SN) and double compact objects (DCOs) provide several critical constraints on population-synthesis models: the parameters of these models must b…
