An important step in the planning of future gravitational-wave (GW) detectors and of the networks they will form is the estimation of their detection and parameter-estimation capabilities, which is the basis of science-case studies. Several future GW detectors have been proposed or are under development, which might also operate and observe in parallel. These detectors include terrestrial, lunar, and space-borne detectors. In this paper, we present GWFish, a new software to simulate GW detector networks and to calculate measurement uncertainties based on the Fisher-matrix approximation. GWFish models the impact of detector motion on PE and makes it possible to analyze multiband scenarios, i.e., observation of a GW signal by different detectors in different frequency bands. We showcase a few examples for the Einstein Telescope (ET) including the sky-localization of binary neutron stars, and ET's capability to measure the polarization of GWs.

  1. Direct Measurement of the Accretion Disk Formed in Prompt Collapse Mergers with Future Gravitational-Wave Observatories

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The postmerger ringdown frequency of promptly collapsing binary neutron star mergers is correlated with accretion disk mass, allowing a proposed 10 percent measurement with third-generation gravitational wave detectors.

  2. LIGO A$^\sharp$: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+

    astro-ph.IM 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    LIGO A#, a room-temperature upgrade of the LIGO detectors proposed for the 2030s, would broaden sensitivity and increase projected compact-binary detection rates by factors of four to eight relative to A+.

  3. Assessing the Impact of Instrumental Requirements on the Scientific Performance of the Einstein Telescope

    astro-ph.IM 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Degrading the Einstein Telescope's sensitivity in specific frequency bands hurts different science goals in predictable ways, but the mission remains scientifically strong even in the worst modelled cases.

  4. Co-design of ground-based gravitational wave detector networks

    astro-ph.IM 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A proof-of-concept ML pipeline co-designs two-site gravitational-wave detector networks, producing three example configurations with 15–44 km arms and BNS ranges up to 1160 Mpc.

  5. Gravitational Wave Modeling of White-Dwarf--Compact-Object Binaries and Observational Outlook

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    WD–CO binaries produce unique GW waveforms with a sharp f_max cutoff; LGWA/DECIGO will detect many end stages, while terrestrial detectors will not mistake them for sub-solar compact objects.

  6. Extending Ground-Based Gravitational-Wave Sensitivity to 5 Hz

    astro-ph.IM 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    New laser and inertial sensors stabilize platforms to 10 mHz and are projected to improve LIGO's low-frequency strain sensitivity by an order of magnitude at 10 Hz.

  7. Detectability and Parameter Estimation for Einstein Telescope Configurations with GWJulia

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A new open-source Julia tool forecasts Einstein Telescope parameter-estimation accuracy, finding the 2L45 design marginally best for single parameters but comparable to other layouts when joint precision is required.

  8. Cosmological constraints and standard sirens forecasts for non-dynamical dark energy in Horndeski gravity

    astro-ph.CO 2026-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Standard sirens from third-generation detectors could measure H0 to 0.21% in Extended Cuscuton models, but the forecast omits the modified GW luminosity distance.
