In particular, in addition to citing the numerical codebase itself, if you use the code for gravitational calculations, we request that you cite Ref. \cite{Nasipak:2025tby}, which was the first article to outline the algorithms and generic computations of gravitational perturbations within the pybhpt codebase. For scalar calculations, we request you cite either Ref. \cite{Nasipak:2025tby} or the work of earlier Ref. \cite{Nasipak:2022xjh}, which focused purely on the scalar field implementation.
