Technical Notes and Analysis Reports

''Finished''

''Finished'' means that I have double-checked all the equations, proofread the text a few times, listed all the references, and put in all the plots, diagrams, figures, & sections instead of their placeholders. However, I probably still have plans to add/change some material in each of them, so check the version number! These technotes can be freely distributed.

''Unfinished''

''Unfinished'' means that I have *not* double-checked all the equations, nor listed all the references, and still have many placeholders for various plots, diagrams, figures, & sections. I may plan on ''finishing'' them one day, but for now, they are not for distribution. However, given all these caveats, they contain alot of information and some sections are ``finished.'' Therefore, if you are interested in them, then send me email at my jlab account and I may send you what I have.
