Systematic and Statistical Uncertainties in the Characterization of Gravitational-Wave Sources

With the increasing number of gravitational-wave (GW) detections made by LIGO-Virgo-Kagra during the first three observing runs, the field of GW astrophysics has a growing need for prompt and precise parameter estimation (PE) of GW sources. To better understand the limitations of the current PE prac...
