  The fast multipole method (FMM) algorithm was developed by Greengard and Rokhlin in 1987 *. As one of the top ten algorithms of the 20th century, it has been applied in a wide range of fields. The FMM complexity is O(N), where N is the number of articles, allowing for large-scale simulations. However, it includes all the two-body collisional forces, in contrast to other methods such as the popular particle in-cell (PIC) methods. While collisionality can be very important, many applications require only the mean field effects. PIC is frequently used in this regime. Due to recent concerns of unphysical effects of grids, interpolation and other approximations in PIC codes, an alternative based on different underlying assumptions would prove enlightening. For these cases, a smoothed or softened FMM using a Plummer-like smoothing parameter holds much promise. Unfortunately, the original FMM based on analytic expansions of the 1/r-like potentials does not allow for Plummer softening. We present our new soft-FMM employing differential algebras (DA) to obtain the modified expansions. We also compare the performance of the smoothed DA-FMM with examples from PIC simulations.

The Medium-energy Electron Ion Collider (MEIC) at JLab is designed to provide high luminosity and high polarization needed to reach new frontiers in the exploration of nuclear structure. The luminosity, exceeding 1033 cm-2s−1 in a broad range of the center-of-mass (CM) energy and maximum luminosity above 1034 cm-2s−1, is achieved by high-rate collisions of short small-emittance low-charge bunches made possible by high-energy electron cooling of the ion beam and synchrotron radiation damping of the electron beam. The polarization of light ion species (p, d, 3He) can be easily preserved and manipulated due to the unique figure-8 shape of the collider rings. A fully consistent set of parameters have been developed considering the balance of machine performance, required technical development and cost. This paper reports recent progress on the MEIC accelerator design including electron and ion complexes, integrated interaction region design, figure-8-ring-based electron and ion polarization schemes, RF/SRF systems and ERL-based high-energy electron cooling. Luminosity performance is also presented for the MEIC baseline design.
