The analysis of gravitational wave (GW) datasets is based on the comparison of measured time series with theoretical templates of the detector's response to a variety of source parameters. For LISA, the main scientific observables will be the so-called time-delay interferometry (TDI) combinations, which suppress the otherwise overwhelming laser noise. Computing the TDI response to GW involves projecting the GW polarizations onto the LISA constellation arms, and then combining projections delayed by a multiple of the light propagation time along the arms. Both computations are difficult to perform efficiently for generic LISA orbits and GW signals. Various approximations are currently used in practice, e.g., assuming constant and equal armlengths, which yields analytical TDI expressions. In this article, we present 'fastlisaresponse', a new efficient GPU-accelerated code that implements the generic TDI response to GWs in the time domain. We use it to characterize the parameter-estimation bias incurred by analyzing loud Galactic-binary signals using the equal-armlength approximation. We conclude that equal-armlength parameter-estimation codes should be upgraded to the generic response if they are to achieve optimal accuracy for high (but reasonable) SNR sources within the actual LISA data.

Parameter-estimation bias induced by transient orbital resonances in extreme-mass-ratio inspirals
Neglecting transient orbital resonances in EMRIs causes significant SNR losses and biases in recovered parameters, with the sign and amplitude of resonance-induced changes to integrals of motion being critical.

PhenomXPNR: An improved gravitational wave model linking precessing inspirals and NR-calibrated merger-ringdown
PhenomXPNR is a fast frequency-domain gravitational-wave template for spinning black-hole mergers that combines post-Newtonian inspiral precession with numerical-relativity-calibrated merger and ringdown.
