SIMION

SIMION is a specialized computer software used to design and simulate the behavior of electrical fields and particle trajectories, particularly for devices like mass spectrometers and electron microscopes. It models how charged particles, such as ions or electrons, move within electric and magnetic fields, allowing engineers and scientists to optimize device configurations before physical manufacturing. By virtually testing different setups and field arrangements, SIMION helps improve accuracy, efficiency, and performance of scientific instruments, reducing the need for costly trial-and-error experimentation.
