Tutorials

Step-by-step, runnable walkthroughs of the main workflows:

Tutorial What you’ll learn
Loading a waveform Load a BBH merger from the RIT catalog, inspect metadata, extract physically-scaled modes, plot polarizations
Cross-catalog comparison Find the “same” system in RIT and SXS, align in time and phase, compute a noise-weighted mismatch
NR vs surrogate comparison Validate NRSur7dq4 against a catalog simulation with per-mode noise-weighted matches

All tutorials assume the package is installed and download waveform data on first run (network access required).
