Abstract

We calculate how accurately parameters of the short-period binaries (10-4 Hz f 10-2 Hz) will be determined from the gravitational waves by LISA. In our analysis the chirp signal f is newly included as a fitting parameters and dependence on observational period or wave frequency is studied in detail. Implications for gravitational wave astronomy are also discussed quantitatively.
