- Author contribution statement
- I produced the generic binary waveform model used to measure the parameters of the source. This was the only model that included all measurable physical effects in the signal, and was therefore crucial to measuring the properties of the first gravitational-wave detection. I also contributed to the analysis, and to the writing of all sections of the paper.
