twisstool 1.20

tool for loading any MADX table files like twiss tables etc..

Python Twiss Tool

---

This tool can be used to read any table produced by MAD-X, not only twiss tables.

---

Installation

In a terminal run

pip install twisstool

---

Usage

from twisstool import twiss

tw = twiss('madxTableFile.txt')

The created instance of twiss named tw contains (at least) two attributes:

• header containing a list of the columns found in the file
• data containing a pandas dataframe containing the data found in the columns
• any global parameter found in the header

If one would want to plot $\beta_x$ as a function of $s$, one could do:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.plot(tw.data['S'], tw.data['BETX'])
plt.show()

Or you can use the following:

tw.plot('S', 'BETX')
