gw.waveform_generator.wfg_utils.get_starting_frequency_for_SEOBRNRv5_conditioning(
    parameters,
)

Compute starting frequency needed for having 3 extra cycles for tapering the TD modes. It returns the needed quantities to apply the standard LALSimulation conditioning routines to the TD modes.

Parameters

Name Type Description Default
parameters Dictionary of parameters suited for GWSignal (obtained with NewInterfaceWaveformGenerator._convert_parameters) required

Returns

Name Type Description
f_min float Waveform starting frequency
f_start float New waveform starting frequency
extra_time float Extra time to take care of situations where the frequency is close to merger
original_f_min float Initial waveform starting frequency
f_isco float ISCO frequency
