Analytical Growth Rates

The following example illustrates how to obtain growth rates from intra-beam scattering in Xsuite. The functionality is exposed through the TwissTable and can make use of two different formalism, Nagaitsev and Bjorken-Mtingwa. The former provides a computationally efficient approach but does not account for vertical dispersion, while the latter accounts for it but is slower.
