Astro2020 Science White Paper: A Summary of Multimessenger Science with Galactic Binaries

Thomas Kupfer, Mukremin Kilic, Tom Maccarone +3

Galactic binaries with orbital periods less than 1 hr are strong gravitational wave sources in the mHz regime, ideal for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). In…
