Polarization Object

class perceval.utils.polarization.Polarization(v)

Polarization class

This class is defined values used by polarization annotations P

Parameters: v (Union[str, Any, Tuple[Any, Any]]) – a string ([HVADLR]), a single angle or a pair of angle definition either symbolic or numeric. Angles should be in $[0,\pi]$ range.
Raise: ValueError if the parameters are out of range, or invalid

static parse(s)

Parse a polarization value string

Parameters: s (str) – should match regex: ^([HVADLR]|$theta,phi$|theta$
Return type: Polarization
Returns: a Polarization instance
Raise: ValueError if the value cannot be parsed, or if parameters are invalid
