NERSC-6 Benchmarks
The NERSC-6 application benchmarks were used in the acquisition process that resulted in the NERSC Cray XE6 ("Hopper") system. A technical report describing the benchmark programs used in the NERSC-6 acquisition and the science drivers behind them is available here.

IMPACT_T
General Description IMPACT-T (Integrated Map and Particle Accelerator Tracking-Time) is a parallel, three-dimensional, quasi-static beam dynamics code used to study dynamics in photoinjectors and RF linear accelerators. Developed under the US DOE Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing (SciDAC) program, it uses a Particle-in-Cell method to model the space-charge forces of the beam(s) self-consistently. It solves the electro-static Poisson equation in the moving beam frame and allows an… Read More »
