Magnetic Field Storage #1239

Open osbornjd opened 2 years ago

osbornjd commented 2 years ago

According to @asalzburger the magnetic field is nominally stored in the Grid class as a vector of doubles. It would be convenient to have this reworked as a vector of floats to reduce memory storage, given that (in my expectation, at least) magnetic field mappings will never need the precision of doubles.
