0.17.0

Enhancements

• The pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.matching module has two new wrapper functions, match_tunes and match_chromaticities, to perform matching on either tunes or chromaticities only.

• The pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.lhc module has a new utility function, get_magnets_powering, to get the percentage of magnets’ max powering used in a given configuration.

• The pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.utils module has a new function, export_madx_table, to conveniently export an internal table to disk with proper regex filtering in a way that can be read by MAD-X later on.

• The pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.constants module now includes a regex for the (HL)LHC triplets. Beware that MAD-X itself does not understand all regex features.

Bug Fixes

• The get_pattern_twiss function now properly handles being given specific columns.

Maintenance

• The deprecated pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.lhc.match_no_coupling_through_ripkens function has been removed, its replacement in the pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.coupling module should be used.

• The deprecated pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.lhc._get_k_strings function has been removed, its replacement in the pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.utils module should be used.

• The deprecated pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.matching.get_closest_tune_approach function has been removed, its replacement in the pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.coupling module should be used.

• The deprecated pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.matching.get_lhc_tune_and_chroma_knobs function has been removed, its replacement in the pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.lhc module should be used.

• The pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.lhc._get_k_strings helper function is now deprecated and has been moved to pyhdtoolkit.cpymadtools.utils._get_k_strings.

• The internal imports in the package have been reworked, and sub-packages now only expose their modules through __all__ opposed to some modules’ contents previously.

• Some tests have been added.
