abstract = {Nonlinear effects in particle accelerators have
historically been treated as harmful influences that
necessitate various mitigation schemes. Therefore, the
simulation tools available are largely focused on
identifying and correcting resonances. However, recent
advances proved that nonlinear beam dynamics enables new
techniques for manipulating particle beams and can
characterise diffusion and chaos in particle accelerators.
The simulation tools currently available for these purposes
are difficult to integrate across different frameworks. This
paper presents Xnlbd, a new Python package extending the
Xsuite simulation framework, which aims to provide a unified
set of tools for analysing nonlinear beam dynamics
phenomena. It allows the visualisation of highly nonlinear
phase spaces, the efficient finding of both stable and
unstable fixed points and separatrices, the calculation of
resonance driving terms and normal forms, and the
computation of dynamic indicators for the detection of
chaotic motion.},
