466 citations recorded by the source corpus.

We review potential low-frequency gravitational-wave sources, which are expected to be detected by Taiji, a Chinese space-based gravitational-wave detector, estimate the detection rates of these gravitational-wave sources and present the parameter estimation of massive black hole binaries.

• Gravitational waves induced by scalar perturbations with a lognormal peak (2020, background): “The induced GWs from these models may be detected in the near future by the current and future detectors like LIGO/Virgo, KAGRA [140], LISA [141–144], Taiji [145], Tianqin [146], ET [147, 148], DECIGO [149], BBO [150–152], FAST [153], and SKA [154, 155].”
