TwoPunctures metadataΒΆ

The TwoPunctures thorn saves a metadata file called TwoPunctures.bbh which contains the parameters for the initial data. Sometimes, it is useful to access these variables. If kuibit finds a TwoPunctures.bbh, it will read it and store the content in a TwoPuncturesDir object. This is a dictionary-like object that maps the metadata in the TwoPunctures.bbh to their values.

For example,

# Assuming sd is a SimDir
print(sd.twopunctures["initial-ADM-energy"])

This will print the ADM mass computed by TwoPunctures. To find what fields are available, you can use the keys method.
