the potential considers the ellipsoid as being comprised of small

spheres of size sigma. LJ particles are a single sphere of size

sigma. The distinction is made to allow the pair style to make

efficient calculations of ellipsoid/solvent interactions.

with the <I>asphere</I> extension (e.g. <A HREF = "fix_nve_asphere.html">fix

be used since it defines the rotational state of the ellipsoidal

<P>The parameters used depend on the type of particles interacting -

ellipsoid or LJ sphere. The type of particle is determined by

the diameters specified with the <A HREF = "shape.html">shape</A>

represent a single particle with size sigma. The epsilon_i_* or

epsilon_j_* parameters are ignored for LJ sphere interactions.

The interactions between two LJ sphere particles are computed

using the standard Lennard-Jones formula.

<P>A12 specifies the energy prefactor which depends on

the RE-squared potential. Therefore, the effective shape

|

|
<P>The epsilon_i and epsilon_j coefficients are actually defined for atom
|
||
|
types, not for pairs of atom types. Thus, in a series of pair_coeff
|
||
|
commands, they only need to be specified once for each atom type.

</P>
|
||
|
<P>Specifically, if any of epsilon_i_a, epsilon_i_b, epsilon_i_c are
|
||
|
non-zero, the three values are assigned to atom type I. If all the
|
||
|
epsilon_i values are zero, they are ignored. If any of epsilon_j_a,
|
||
|
epsilon_j_b, epsilon_j_c are non-zero, the three values are assigned
|
||
|
to atom type J. If all three epsilon_i values are zero, they are
|
||
|
ignored. Thus the typical way to define the epsilon_i and epsilon_j
|
||
|
coefficients is to list their values in "pair_coeff I J" commands when
|
||
|
I = J, but set them to 0.0 when I != J. If you do list them when I !=
|
||
|
J, you should insure they are consistent with their values in other
|
||
|
pair_coeff commands.

<P>Note that if this potential is being used as a sub-style of
|

|
<A HREF = "pair_hybrid.html">pair_style hybrid</A>, and there is no "pair_coeff I I"
|
||
|
setting made for RE-squared for a particular type I (because I-I
|
||
|
interactions are computed by another hybrid pair potential), then you
|
||
|
still need to insure the epsilon a,b,c coefficients are assigned to
|
||
|
that type in a "pair_coeff I J" command.

<P>Automatic mixing is supported only between LJ sphere

to calculate the interactions and the implicit dependance of

the ellipsoid-LJ sphere interaction on the equation for the

Hamaker constant presented here. Mixing of sigma and epsilon

followed by calculation of the energy prefactors using the

equations above is recommended.

shifting performed for ellipsoidal interactions due to the anisotropic

dependence of the interaction.
