The planned sensitivity upgrades to the LIGO and Virgo facilities could uniquely identify host galaxies of dark sirens-compact binary coalescences without any electromagnetic counterparts-within a redshift of z = 0.1. This is aided by the higher order spherical harmonic modes present in the gravitational-wave signal, which also improve distance estimation. In conjunction, sensitivity upgrades and higher modes will facilitate an accurate, independent measurement of the host galaxy's redshift in addition to the luminosity distance from the gravitational wave observation to infer the Hubble-Lema\^itre constant H0 to better than a few percent in five years. A possible Voyager upgrade or third generation facilities would further solidify the role of dark sirens for precision cosmology in the future.

  1. Constraining the lensing dispersion from the angular clustering of binary black hole mergers

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Angular auto-correlation of gravitational wave sources decreases with lensing dispersion, and joint cross-correlation with galaxies partially breaks the degeneracy with source bias.

  2. Shape of U: Measuring the Curvature of the Universe with Gravitational Waves

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Next-generation GW detector networks can constrain the spatial curvature parameter Ω_k to 1σ uncertainty of 0.029 using intermediate-mass binary black hole bright sirens.

  3. Not too close! Evaluating the impact of the baseline on the localization of binary black holes by next-generation gravitational-wave detectors

    gr-qc 2026-04 conditional novelty 4.0

    Baselines of 8-11 ms light travel time for two CE detectors provide a reasonable compromise for BBH sky localization, with third detectors eliminating multimodality for most or all events.

  4. Cosmology Intertwined: A Review of the Particle Physics, Astrophysics, and Cosmology Associated with the Cosmological Tensions and Anomalies

    astro-ph.CO 2022-03 accept novelty 2.0

    The paper reviews cosmological tensions including the H0 and S8 discrepancies and explores new physics models that could explain them.
