Title page of the article with the title “Compact binary coalescences: gravitational-wave astronomy with ground-based detectors” by the authors “K. Chatziioannou, T. Dent, M. Fishbach, F. Ohme, M. Pürrer, V. Raymond, J. Veitch” and with the abstract “The era of gravitational wave astronomy began in 2015 with the observation of the signal from the merger of two black holes by the LIGO detectors; by 2021, almost 100 more such transient signals from coalescences of compact binaries of black holes and neutron stars were catalogued. With improvements to the ground-based interferometer network consisting of LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA now promising to bring the total number of detections into the hundreds, we review the observational signatures and analysis methods for the most prolific gravitational-wave source: the coalescence of compact binaries.”.
