Black holes and gravitational waves: simultaneous discovery by initial laser interferometers

Abstract
Study of gravitational-radiation induced merging rates of relativistic binary stars (double neutron stars; neutron star + black hole; double black holes) shows that the first-generation gravitational wave interferometers with an rms-sensitivity of 10-21 at frequency 100 Hz can detect 10-700 black hole and only 1 neutron star coalescences in a 1-year integration time in a wide range of stellar evolution parameters. It is notable that modern concepts of stellar evolution predict that the first detection of gravitational wave will independently discover black holes.
