Parameter estimation studies of simulated gravitational wave observations of low mass compact binary coalescences, utilizing nuclear-physics-informed-priors on neutron star properties. We investigate how dark matter influences the neutron star equation of state and, by extension, the observable gravitational-wave signatures from binary neutron stars. This work falls under the objectives of N3AS (Network for Neutrinos, Nuclear Astrophysics and Symmetries), an NSF Physics Frontier Center. https://n3as.berkeley.edu/
