Systematic comparison of population synthesis models finds common-envelope evolution ranges from 0-100% for black hole binaries but exceeds 90% for neutron star binaries, with merger rates alone insufficient to distinguish channels due to degeneracies in model assumptions.

How Common Are Common Envelopes? Quantifying Their Role in Forming Gravitational-Wave Sources
Systematic comparison of population synthesis models finds common-envelope evolution ranges from 0-100% for black hole binaries but exceeds 90% for neutron star binaries, with merger rates alone insufficient to distinguish channels due to degeneracies in model assumptions.
