Abstract

The study of current gravitational waves (GW) catalogues provide an interesting model independent way to understand further the nature of dark energy. In this work, we present an update of the constrains related to dynamical dark energy parametrisations using recent Gravitational-Wave Transient catalogues (GWTC-1 and GWTC-2) along with Type Ia supernova (SNeIa) and Cosmic Chronometers (CC) catalogues. According to our Bayesian results using the full SNeIa+CC+GW database, the Λ\LambdaCDM model shows a strong preference against two dark energy parameterisation known as Barboza-Alcaniz (BA) and the Low Correlation (LC) models. Also, we obtain a very strong preference against the Chevallier-Polarski-Linder (CPL) model. Furthermore, we generated a mock GW catalogue and estimate that we require approximately 1000 standard sirens to have a constrain of H0H_0 within 1\% relative error, quantity that is out of reach of current standard sirens candidates in GWTC-1 and GWTC-2 catalogues.
