December 2024 — Delivered Resonance Driving Terms (RDT) support in pyat. Introduced a dedicated rdt module with functions to compute focusing, coupling, chromatic, geometric, and tuneshift RDTs, and updated MATLAB and Python physics modules to integrate RDT functionality and ensure cross-language compatibility. The work is anchored by commit 92a2f73e3a04662e7caa9b2b12aeb8f58da7644a (Compute RDTs (#821)). This enhancement expands resonance analysis capabilities, enabling more accurate modeling and informed design decisions, and sets the foundation for validation and benchmarking workflows across Python and MATLAB toolchains.
