+Manipulating fields via Python
+------------------------------
+
+An example of using Python to access the simulation charge density, solve the Poisson equation (using ``superLU``) and write the resulting electrostatic potential back to the simulation is given in the input file below. This example uses the ``fields.py`` module included in the ``pywarpx`` library.
