LISA, binary stars, and the mass of the graviton

We extend and improve earlier estimates of the ability of the proposed LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna) gravitational wave detector to place upper bounds on the graviton mass ${m}_{g}$ by comparing the arrival times of gravitational and electromagnetic signals from binary star systems. We show that the best possible limit …
