- Vecchio co-led the work to produce inference on the spin distribution of the underlying population of binary black holes in the Universe based on the 10 binary black hole mergers observed during the first and second Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observing runs. This specific element of the paper is the extension and application to 10 systems of an earlier analysis on a smaller number of binary black holes that was reported in a paper that he co-authored (Nature 548, 426 2017).
