Notes. For the upper limit, we assumed no detection except for the non-spinning system with total mass MT = 150 M⊙ and q = 1/2 marked with (†), for which we assumed one detection. The source spin parameters are defined at a starting frequency of 16 Hz. The gravitational waveforms are selected based on their availability.
