The AC dipole is a device to study beam optics of hadron synchrotrons. It can produce sustained large amplitude oscillations with virtually no emittance growth. A vertical AC dipole for the Tevatron is recently implemented and a maximum oscillation amplitude of 2σ (4σ) at 980 GeV (150 GeV) is achieved [1] . When such large oscillations are measured with the BPM system of the Tevatron (20 µm resolution), not only linear but even nonlinear optics can be directly measured. This paper shows how to

Since an AC dipole is nondestructive, it allows frequent measurements of the optics which is necessary for such an test.
