Zusammenfassung:
We present pySEOBNR, a Python package for gravitational-wave (GW) modeling
developed within the effective-one-body (EOB) formalism. The package contains
an extensive framework to generate state-of-the-art inspiral-merger-ringdown
waveform models for compact-object binaries composed of black holes and neutron
stars. We document and demonstrate how to use the built-in quasi-circular
precessing-spin model SEOBNRv5PHM, whose aligned-spin limit (SEOBNRv5HM) has
been calibrated to numerical-relativity simulations and the nonspinning sector
to gravitational self-force data using pySEOBNR. Furthermore, pySEOBNR contains
the infrastructure necessary to construct, calibrate, test, and profile new
waveform models in the EOB approach. The efficiency and flexibility of pySEOBNR
will be crucial to overcome the data-analysis challenges posed by upcoming and
next-generation GW detectors on the ground and in space, which will afford the
possibility to observe all compact-object binaries in our Universe.
