MACH-B incorporates (1) highly-scalable, high-performance and generally-applicable FMM-based algorithms to accurately model space-charge effects in high-intensity hadron beams and (2) boundary integral approaches to handle singular effects near the beam pipe using advanced quadratures. MACH-B will allow for more complex beam dynamics simulations that more accurately capture bunch effects and predict beam loss. Further, by introducing an abstraction layer to hide FMM implementation and parallelization complexities, MACH-B removes one of the key impediments to the adoption of FMMs by the accelerator physics community.}}, }
