11. Note that this value for (Formula presented) is specified for the 1 way position noise budget, as is the expression in Eq. (10), and has many constituent noises. Often, pure shot noise is considered as the limiting source of noise for the LISA floor; in that case, Eq. (10) should be replaced by Eq. (13) of Ref. 10.
12. The low frequency approximation is adequate for our purposes here. If one uses the full sensitivity curve (available at http://www.srl.caltech.edu/(Formula presented)shane/sensitivity/) instead, the results obtained differ only insubstantially.
