Merger rate density of NS-NS, BH-NS and BH-BH mergers for model M30. For comparison, we show LIGO/Virgo O1/O2 constraints on merger rate densities. While actual estimates are available for the BH-BH and NS-NS mergers, only an upper limit is available for the BH-NS mergers from O1/O2 data (but see Appendix A.9). We note that the presented merger rate densities are consistent with the LIGO/Virgo estimates.
