contents FACET2-S2E is a Python package for start-to-end simulations of the Facility for Advanced Accelerator Experimental Tests-II (FACET-II), a US Department of Energy National User Facility. A kilometer-long particle accelerator creates, manipulates, and accelerates electron beams to over 10 GeV before focusing and compressing them to the micron-scale. These beams create extreme electric and magnetic fields on the femtosecond timescale, uniquely enabling research into exotic states and advanced accelerator technology, including plasma wakefield acceleration. This software package enables present or prospective facility users to easily run the most common types of simulation pipelines to design experiments and interpret results.
