Low-frequency gravitational-wave science with eLISA/NGO
  We review the expected science performance of the New Gravitational-Wave
Observatory (NGO, a.k.a. eLISA), a mission under study by the European Space
Agency for launch in the early 2020s. eLISA will survey the low-frequency
gravitational-wave sky (from 0.1 mHz to 1 Hz), detecting and characterizing a
broad variety of systems and events throughout the Universe, including the
coalescences of massive black holes brought together by galaxy mergers; the
inspirals of stellar-mass black holes and compact stars into central galactic
black holes; several millions of ultracompact binaries, both detached and mass
transferring, in the Galaxy; and possibly unforeseen sources such as the relic
gravitational-wave radiation from the early Universe. eLISA's high
signal-to-noise measurements will provide new insight into the structure and
history of the Universe, and they will test general relativity in its
strong-field dynamical regime.
