Backward Population Synthesis: Mapping the Evolutionary History of Gravitational-wave Progenitors

Backward Population Synthesis: Mapping the Evolutionary History of Gravitational-wave Progenitors

One promising way to extract information about stellar astrophysics from a gravitational-wave catalog is to compare the catalog to the outputs of stellar population synthesis modeling with varying physical assumptions. The parameter space of physical assumptions in population synthesis is high-dimen...
