A new strategy for global geometry optimization of clusters is presented. Important features are a restriction of search space to favorable nearest-neighbor distance ranges, a suitable cluster growth representation with diminished correlations, and easy transferability of the results to larger clust
## Abstract A modified genetic algorithm with realβnumber coding, nonβuniform mutation and arithmetical crossover operators was described in this paper. A local minimization was used to improve the final solution obtained by the genetic algorithm. Using the expβ6β1 interatomic energy function, the
