  text: "Using photometry collected with the Zwicky Transient Facility, we are conducting
    an ongoing survey for binary systems with short orbital periods (\r\n with the
    goal of identifying new gravitational-wave sources detectable by the upcoming
    Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). We present a sample of 15 binary systems
    discovered thus far, with orbital periods ranging from 6.91 to 56.35 minutes.
    Of the 15 systems, seven are eclipsing systems that do not show signs of significant
    mass transfer. Additionally, we have discovered two AM Canum Venaticorum systems
    and six systems exhibiting primarily ellipsoidal variations in their lightcurves.
    We present follow-up spectroscopy and high-speed photometry confirming the nature
    of these systems, estimates of their LISA signal-to-noise ratios, and a discussion
    of their physical characteristics."
