The Effect of Higher Harmonic Corrections on the Detection of massive black hole binaries with LISA

Porter, Edward K., Cornish, Neil J.

Understand

Massive black hole binaries are key targets for the space based gravitational wave interferometer LISA.

Several studies have investigated how LISA observations could be used to constrain the parameters of these systems.
Until recently, most of these studies have ignored the higher harmonic corrections to the waveforms.
Here we analyze the effects of the higher harmonics in more detail by performing extensive Monte Carlo simulations.
