Notes. In bold we highlight BH-BH merger rate densities for all the models for easy comparison with LIGO/Virgo data.

(a)

Local merger rate density at redshift z = 0 (note rate increase with z).

(b)

Detection rate for LIGO/Virgo mid-high range (O3 proxy).

(c)

Redshift for the most distant source detectable (best located/oriented).

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
