particle tracing in a geometry using symmetries?

Hello,

I want to calculate the electric field in an electrostatic device, and trace particles in this field. My geometry has 2 plane-symmetries, therefore it would be a misuse of computing resources to calculate the field in the full geometry: I am only calculating the field in 1/4 of the model and set up appropriate boundary conditions at the symmetry planes.

So far so good. How can I mirror this electric field to be able to trace particles in the full device?

Thank you
Daniel
