Introduction
------------

Accelerator Toolbox is a code used for simulating particle accelerators, used
particularly for synchrotron light sources. It is hosted on `Github
<https://github.com/atcollab/at>`_. Its original implementation is in Matlab.

pyAT is a Python interface to Accelerator Toolbox. It uses the 'pass methods'
defined in Accelerator Toolbox, implemented by compiling the C code used in the
AT 'integrators' into a Python extension. These pass methods are used by
higher-level functions to provide physics results.

See the `pyAT website <https://atcollab.github.io/at/p/index.html>`_ for a
more detailed introduction.

pyAT supports Python 3.7 to 3.11.

Installation
------------

Install accelerator-toolbox from PyPI::

    $ pip install accelerator-toolbox
