Avoid adding low-level details which can be added as additional pages linked from here. At present, we think of three follow-up studies to be concluded in the next three months. The broader idea and the milestones are given in this page. Milestones are marked :white_check_mark: once achieved. The plans are below
-------------------------
# Inference on the population of BBH or BH mimicker binaries # Inference on the population of BBH or BH mimicker binaries

**Idea**: Use the O1/O2 population to make predictions on our future capability to identify BBH and non-BBH populations. * **Idea**: Use the O1/O2 population to make predictions on our future capability to identify BBH and non-BBH populations.
**Milestones**
* Perform IMR runs with kappaS on all the 01-O2 events (Krishnendu). Until the results are available, analysis will be performed with ISCO results that are currently available
* Using simple combining, produce the no. of events v/s bounds on Ks plot for up to 1000 events. This is done by assuming that the population of 1000 events is made by repeatation of 10 O1-O2 events with suitable SNR scaling such that they follow 1/rho^4 distribution (Saleem).
* Repeat the same in Hierarchical framework such that we can constrain the fraction of events that is in favour of BBH (Saleem+).
**Milestones** (Mark :white_check_mark: once achieved) -----------------------
# Stealth/systematic biases in the compact binary parameter estimation due to spin induced moments. # Stealth/systematic biases in the compact binary parameter estimation due to spin induced moments.
* Krishnendu/Saleem: Launch runs
* Krishnendu: Revisit the basic idea and get a rough draft
* Saleem: Push all the remaining stuff
-----------------------
# Measuring spin induced deformations for signals with significant higher harmonics # Measuring spin induced deformations for signals with significant higher harmonics
* Saleem: circulate existing results with main conclusions
* Krishnendu/Saleem: Two higher mode runs; exceptional events
* Krishnendu: Check bilby
* Krishnendu/Saleem: Decide on the injections and finish jobs, make inference
* Make a draft!
-----------------------
# Action items (currently unfinished) # Action items (currently unfinished)
* Krishnendu: submit all the 01-o2 events for imr case * Krishnendu: submit all the 01-O2 events for imr case
* Saleem: using simple combining produced no. of events v/s bounds plot (use 1k events by simple scaling) * Saleem: using simple combining produced no. of events v/s bounds plot (use 1k events by simple scaling)
