Usage

The DiPAS package can be used for various tasks, among which are

• parsing MADX scripts,

• building lattices, either from scripts or programmatically,

• (differentiable) particle tracking,

• (differentiable) optics calculations, such as closed orbit search and Twiss computation,

• serializing lattices to MADX scripts,

• run MADX scripts and related tasks,

• visualizing lattices.
