摘要
We calculate how accurately parameters of the short-period binaries (10(-4) Hz less than or similar to f less than or similar to 10(-2) Hz) will be determined from the gravitational waves by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna ( LISA). In our analysis, the chirp signal, f, is newly included as a fitting parameter, and dependence on the observation period or wave frequency is studied in detail. Implications for gravitational wave astronomy are also discussed quantitatively.
