- Author contribution statement
- I was co-chair of the paper-writing team and corresponding author for this paper announcing the
third gravitational wave detection. I led the planning of the paper, wrote the introduction and conclusions, and supervised and contributed to all other sections of the paper. I also contributed to the planning and writing of the supplement on tests of general relativity. This was just the third event of the collaboration and there was much work needed to ensure that the analysis was right.
