We show that nearly half of all binary black hole (BBH) mergers dynamically assembled in globular clusters have measurable eccentricities ($e>0.01$) in the LISA band ($10^{-2}$ Hz), when General Relativistic corrections are properly included in the $N$-body evolution. If only Newtonian gravity is included, the derived fraction of eccentric LISA sources is significantly lower, which explains why recent studies all have greatly underestimated this fraction. Our findings have major implications for how to observationally distinguish between BBH formation channels using eccentricity with LISA, which is one of the key science goals of the mission. We illustrate that the relatively large population of eccentric LISA sources reported here originates from BBHs that merge between hardening binary-single interactions inside their globular cluster. These results indicate a bright future for using LISA to probe the origin of BBH mergers.

We study the gravitational wave (GW) frequency and chirp mass distribution of binary black hole (BBH) mergers assembled through three-body interactions in globular clusters (GCs), when GW emission at the 2.5 post-Newtonian (PN) level is included in t
he $N$-body equation-of-motion (EOM). From performing $sim 2.5times10^{6}$ PN binary-single interactions based on GC data from the `MOCCA-Survey Database I project, and by the use of analytical methods, we find that $5-10%$ of all the three-body assembled GC BBH mergers have a GW frequency at formation that is $gtrsim 10^{-1}$ Hz, implying they enter the LIGO band without having drifted through the LISA band first. If PN terms are not included in the EOM, one finds instead that all BBH mergers drifts through both LISA and LIGO. As the fraction of BBH mergers that only show up in LIGO is expected to be $sim 0%$ for standard field binary BBH mergers, future joint measurements with LISA and LIGO can be used to gain insight into the formation of BBH mergers.
We derive the probability for a newly formed binary black hole (BBH) to undergo an eccentric gravitational wave (GW) merger during binary-single interactions inside a stellar cluster. By integrating over the hardening interactions such a BBH must und
ergo before ejection, we find that the observable rate of BBH mergers with eccentricity $>0.1$ at $10 rm{Hz}$ relative to the rate of circular mergers can be as high as $sim 5%$ for a typical globular cluster (GC). This further suggests that BBH mergers forming through GW captures in binary-single interactions, eccentric or not, are likely to constitute $sim 10%$ of the total BBH merger rate from GCs. Such GW capture mergers can only be probed with an $N$-body code that includes General Relativistic corrections, which explains why recent Newtonian cluster studies not have been able to resolve this population. Finally, we show that the relative rate of eccentric BBH mergers depends on the compactness of their host cluster, suggesting that an observed eccentricity distribution can be used to probe the origin of BBH mergers.
We derive the observable gravitational wave (GW) peak frequency ($f$) distribution of binary black holes (BBHs) that currently reside inside their globular clusters (GCs), with and without 2.5 Post-Newtonian (2.5PN) effects included in the dynamical
evolution of the BBHs. Recent Newtonian studies have reported that a notable number of nearby non-merging BBHs, i.e. those BBHs that are expected to undergo further dynamical interactions before merger, in GCs are likely to be observable by LISA. However, our 2.5PN calculations show that the distribution of $log f$ for the non-merging BBH population above $sim 10^{-3.5}$ Hz scales as $f^{-34/9}$ instead of the $f^{-2/3}$ scaling found in the Newtonian case. This leads to an approximately two-orders-of-magnitude reduction in the expected number of GW sources at $sim 10^{-3}$ Hz, which lead us to conclude that observing nearby BBHs with LISA is not as likely as has been claimed in the recent literature. In fact, our results suggest that it might be more likely that LISA detects the population of BBHs that will merge before undergoing further interactions. This interestingly suggests that the BBH merger rate derived from LIGO can be used to forecast the number of nearby LISA sources, as well as providing insight into the fraction of BBH mergers forming in GCs.
We explore the formation of double-compact-object binaries in Milky Way (MW) globular clusters (GCs) that may be detectable by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). We use a set of 137 fully evolved GC models that, overall, effectively match
the properties of the observed GCs in the MW. We estimate that, in total, the MW GCs contain $sim21$ sources that will be detectable by LISA. These detectable sources contain all combinations of black hole (BH), neutron star, and white dwarf components. We predict $sim7$ of these sources will be BH-BH binaries. Furthermore, we show that some of these BH-BH binaries can have signal-to-noise ratios large enough to be detectable at the distance of the Andromeda galaxy or even the Virgo cluster.
We consider the formation of double white dwarfs (DWDs) through dynamical interactions in globular clusters. Such interactions can give rise to eccentric DWDs, in contrast to the exclusively circular population expected to form in the Galactic disk.
We show that for a 5-year Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission and distances as far as the Large Magellanic Cloud, multiple harmonics from eccentric DWDs can be detected at a signal-to-noise ratio higher than 8 for at least a handful of eccentric DWDs, given their formation rate and typical lifetimes estimated from current cluster simulations. Consequently the association of eccentricity with stellar-mass LISA sources does not uniquely involve neutron stars, as is usually assumed. Due to the difficulty of detecting (eccentric) DWDs with present and planned electromagnetic observatories, LISA could provide unique dynamical identifications of these systems in globular clusters.
