This page is for top-level management of all the ongoing activities. 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 on this page. Milestones are marked :white_check_mark: once achieved. The plans are below.

To assess how the presence of a non-BH compact object with spin-induced deformations can bias the inferences of binary parameters such as masses, spins and distances. Preliminary studies are done and found that the spin inference is most affected by ignoring the non-unity value of kappa parameter. Apart from reporting how different parameters get affected, it might be worth also exploring how the formation scenarios inferences (based on effective spin distribution) can also get biased.

Currently our bounds are powerful in terms of searching for non-BH signatures but are not useful in constraining the parameter space of BH mimickers due to the strong assumptions that has gone in. There are two scenarios where this test can yield bounds that are more useful for theoretical community.
