AtomECS is a software package that efficiently simulates the motion of neutral atoms experiencing forces exerted by laser radiation, such as in magneto-optical traps and Zeeman slowers. The program implemented using Entity-Component-System pattern, which gives excellent performance, flexibility scalability to parallel computing resources. simulation has been verified comparison analytic results, extensively unit tested.
