Advanced Optimization with SIMION for Charged Particle Optics Design and Development
We will review the two high-dimensional multi-objective optimization platforms for charged particle optics design and simulation with SIMION, based on an upgraded Simplex algorithm and a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA). We will also present benchmarking and showcases in various ion optical simulation designs.
