Update on Standard Siren Science
ORAL
Abstract
We review the present and future of gravitational-wave standard siren measurements. We discuss existing measurements with GW170817 and GW170814, focusing on both counterpart and statistical standard sirens. We also forecast measurements from upcoming gravitational-wave detector networks, showing that future networks may constrain the Hubble constant to ~2% within 5 years.
