ARC Bldg. Room 231/233 SwarmC: simulating the beam-beam interaction for a Linac-Ring Electron-Ion ColliderKevin B. BeardCASA, JLab
The swarmc program models colliding beams and is a direct
descendant of swarm, by R. Li, G. Krafft, and J. Boyce.
It is being developed and used to estimate the luminosity
that can be obtained from an Electron Ion Collider.
Its development is reminiscent of the Charlie Brown adage
"If you learn more from your mistakes than your successes,
then I must be the smartest person in the whole world", and
its modifications have brought to light many important details
of the physics.
