Abstract
In this article, we explore the use of stochastic optimization technique, namely simulated annealing, in elucidating the correct cut-off limit for suppression of Coulomb explosion in dicationic argon gas clusters. We also do a detail study of cluster sizes where the clusters are not stable as one single entity, and try to find out the dissociation channels for these, namely fission or non-fission type. We compare our results with available literature results, both theoretical and experimental.

Selective bond breaking mediated by state specific vibrational excitation in model HOD molecule through optimized femtosecond IR pulse: A simulated annealing based approach

TL;DR: The selective control of O-H/O-D bond dissociation in reduced dimensionality model of HOD molecule has been explored through IR+UV femtosecond pulses and selectivity of the bond breaking by UV pulse (if required, optimized) together with optimized IR one is encouraging compared to the normal pulses.

An adaptive mutation simulated annealing based investigation of Coulombic explosion and identification of dissociation patterns in (CO2)n2+ clusters.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how AMSA itself can overcome the predicaments which can arise in conventional SA and carry out the search for better results by adapting the parameters dynamically during the simulations so that the search process can come out of high energy basins and not go astray for better exploration and convergence, respectively.

Optimization by Simulated Annealing

TL;DR: There is a deep and useful connection between statistical mechanics and multivariate or combinatorial optimization (finding the minimum of a given function depending on many parameters), and a detailed analogy with annealing in solids provides a framework for optimization of very large and complex systems.
