Gravitational wave cosmology with EMRIs

Abstract

We show that the loudest extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) detected by the future space-based gravitational wave detector LISA can be used as dark standard sirens, statistically matching their sky localisation region with mock galaxy catalogs. In these Proceedings we focus on a realistic EMRI population scenario and report accuracy predictions for the measure of cosmological parameters, anticipating the potential of EMRIs to simultaneously constrain the Hubble constant, the dark matter, and the dark energy density parameters.
