Detecting hierarchical stellar systems with LISA

A significant fraction of stars are members of gravitationally bound hierarchies containing three or more components. Almost all low-mass stars in binaries with periods shorter than three days are part of a hierarchical system. We therefore anticipate that a large fraction of compact galactic binaries detected by the Laser Interferometer …
