- Author contribution statement
- As co-chair of the writing team, and corresponding author for the paper I wrote & edited the paper. I helped perform the parameter estimation analysis using software of which I was a lead developer, helped validate the results and interpret them to produce the first constraints on the tidal deformability of neutron stars from gravitational wave observations.
