We present the latest measurements of the Hubble parameter and of the parameter Ξ0 describing modified gravitational wave propagation, obtained from the third gravitational wave transient catalog, GWTC-3, using the correlation with galaxy catalogs and information from the source-frame mass distribution of binary black holes. The latter leads to the tightest bound on Ξ0 so far, i.e. Ξ0 = 1.2 +0.7−0.7 with a flat prior on Ξ0, and Ξ0 = 1.0+0.4−0.8 with a prior uniform in log Ξ0 (Max posterior and 68% HDI). The measurement of H0 is dominated by the single bright siren GW170817, resulting in H0 = 67+9−6 km s−1 Mpc when combined with the galaxy catalog.

Abstract
We present the latest measurements of the Hubble parameter and of the parameter Ξ0 describing modified gravitational wave propagation, obtained from the third gravitational wave transient catalog, GWTC-3, using the correlation with galaxy catalogs and information from the source-frame mass distribution of binary black holes. The latter leads to the tightest bound on Ξ0 so far, i.e. Ξ0 = 1.2 +0.7−0.7 with a flat prior on Ξ0, and Ξ0 = 1.0+0.4−0.8 with a prior uniform in log Ξ0 (Max posterior and 68% HDI). The measurement of H0 is dominated by the single bright siren GW170817, resulting in H0 = 67+9−6 km s−1 Mpc when combined with the galaxy catalog.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
