  • Poster odds for strong gravitational-wave lensing are insensitive to event count

    What the study found The study finds that posterior odds for strong gravitational-wave lensing become insensitive to the number of gravitational-wave events in the data once strong-lensing time delays are accounted for. The authors also state that selection effects cancel out in the posterior odds and do not affect frequentist approaches to strong-lensing detection. Why…
