River Zhang

  Previous two weeks (May 6 - May 17)
     - Completed IPAC2019-poster and submitted paper.
     - "CASA BeamBeam"
     - Revised, optimized and accelerated “Crab Kick” of “CASA BeamBeam” codes by using the High Performance Python Compiler,
       Numba. Based on JIT(Just in Time), Numba translates part of our “Crab Kick” Python functions to optimized machine code
       at runtime using the industry-standard LLVM compiler library. 
     - Performance of “Crab kicking”
     - Simulations have been down for the JLEIC parameters again. For example, for the case CM Energy 21.9GeV, comparing with
       previous job, the “Numba” based “Crab Kick” codes can save 1/5 time than the old code for 4000 turn in a collider ring.
     - 3 Particles Spin Tracking
     - For Snakes 0o, 3 particles spin tracking was carried out again via revised “CASA BeamBeam”.
  Next two weeks (May 20 - May 31)
     - pyFMM will be under investigation.
     - Continue spin tracking study.
