abstract = {Estimation of gas scattering lifetimes in storage rings is typically done using a simple approach that can readily be performed by hand. A more sophisticated approach uses linear mapping of the angular dynamic acceptance around the ring and allows including variation of gas pressure and composition*. However, neither approach is appropriate for highly nonlinear lattices, in which the angular acceptance does not map according to the linear optics. Further, these approaches provide no detailed information about the location of losses. To address these limitations, a tracking-based approach was implemented in the program Pelegant**. We describe the implementation and performance of this method, as well as several applications to the Advanced Photon Source Upgrade.},
