Yet, the gravitational observatory LISA will detect cosmologically-distant coalescing pairs of massive black holes, accurately measure their luminosity distance and help identify an electromagnetic counterpart or a host galaxy. A wide variety of new black hole studies and a gravitational version of Hubble’s diagram become possible, if host galaxies are successfully identified. Furthermore, if dark energy is a manifestation of large-scale modified gravity, deviations from general relativistic expectations could become apparent in a gravitational signal propagated over cosmological scales, especially when compared to the electromagnetic signal from a same source. Finally, since inspirals of white dwarfs into massive black holes at cosmological distances may permit pre-merger localizations, we suggest that careful monitoring of these events and any associated electromagnetic counterpart could lead to high-precision cosmological measurements with LISA."}],"external_id":{"arxiv":["0803.3627"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"author":[{"full_name":"Menou, Kristen","first_name":"Kristen","last_name":"Menou"},{"last_name":"Haiman","first_name":"Zoltán","id":"7c006e8c-cc0d-11ee-8322-cb904ef76f36","full_name":"Haiman, Zoltán"},{"full_name":"Kocsis, Bence","last_name":"Kocsis","first_name":"Bence"}],"month":"05","article_type":"original","publication_status":"published","date_published":"2008-05-01T00:00:00Z","citation":{"apa":"Menou, K., Haiman, Z., & Kocsis, B.
