Deep Surveys of Massive Black Holes with LISA

Abstract

Massive black hole binary systems are among the most interesting sources for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA); gravitational radiation emitted during the last year of in-spiral could be detectable with a very large signal-to-noise ratio for sources at cosmological distance. Here we discuss the impact of LISA for astronomy and cosmology; we review our present understanding of the relevant issues, and highlight open problems that deserve further investigations.
