Presets
Simulated annealing borrows from metallurgy: at high temperature it accepts worse moves freely, letting it jump out of local minima; as it cools, it settles into the best valley it found. The acceptance probability exp(−ΔE/T) is the key. Cool too fast and it gets stuck; cool slowly and it finds the global optimum.

Reading this result: Balanced schedule: enough early wandering to escape shallow minima, then a steady settle toward the deepest valley found.
