TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an up-to-date summary of the rates for all types of compact binary coalescence sources detectable by the Initial and Advanced versions of the ground-based LIGO and Virgo Astrophysical estimates for compact-binary coalescence rates depend on a number of assumptions and unknown model parameters.
