Inspiral-merger-ringdown consistency test for binary black hole triggers

Summary

(Mf,chif plot) (Mf,chif plot) (delta_Mf/Mf, delta_chif/chif plot) (Mf,chif plot)
The plot shows the 68% and 95% confidence regions on the posteriors on the mass (Mf) and dimensionless spin (χf) of the final black hole estimated from the inspiral and ringdown parts of the signal, as well as the full IMR signal. Posteriors on the fractional parameters (ΔMf/Mf, Δχf/χf). The GR prediction is marked by the + sign.
