GWTC-5.0 reports BBH merger rate 27.5-49.4 Gpc^{-3} yr^{-1} at z=0.2, evidence for hierarchical mergers with χ~0.7 at two mass scales, mass spectrum features at 10 and 35 solar masses, and asymmetric effective spin distribution implying at least 9% aligned mergers.
Simulations with a new tidal model in COMPAS predict that merging binary black holes from isolated evolution are strongly biased to low effective spins, with one third below 0.05 and only 3% above 0.5, but the high-spin fraction rises to 15% at higher redshifts.

Modern tidal interaction models for rapid binary population synthesis: II. Binary black hole formation, mergers, and spins
Simulations with a new tidal model in COMPAS predict that merging binary black holes from isolated evolution are strongly biased to low effective spins, with one third below 0.05 and only 3% above 0.5, but the high-spin fraction rises to 15% at higher redshifts.
