Hi Yosef,<div><br></div><div>I'm not so familiar with the parities in the symmetry thorns, but I am reasonably confident that the manual Cartesian parities which are set by WeylScal4 are correct (in fact, there was correction committed just a few days ago). So, it seems likely that the parities in the symmetry thorns are either wrong or my interpretation of what they mean is wrong.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Can someone who is familiar with the symmetry thorns comment on whether the code there is correct? Are these parities used by any actively used code? It looks like they were added for PsiKadelia.</div>

I noticed that WeylScal4 sets the symmetries of the Weyl scalars by<br>
defining the real and imaginary parts of each of the psi's in a<br>
different group. RotatingSymmetry and the ReflectionSymmetry thorns<br>
define a tensor alias "weylscalars_real", but the symmetries given there<br>
do not correspond to those of the psi's.<br>
