51. hSAΔf with Δf=1/1 yr, it falls between the lowest Webbink-Han estimate ("no wind enhancement" curve) and the highest ("standard model") and agrees to within a factor 2 with both - except for one issue: Webbink and Han do not take account of the cutoff in the noise due to the line spikes of individual white-dwarf binaries ceasing to overlap each other, for 1 yr of integration, at frequencies above about 0.0017 Hz, so their noise curves fail to plunge above there.
