pair_style zero command :h3
[Syntax:]
pair_style zero cutoff :pre
zero = style name of this pair style
cutoff = global cutoff (distance units) :l
[Examples:]
pair_style zero
pair_coeff * *
pair_coeff 1 2 3.0 :pre
[Description:]
Define a global cutoff length for the purpose of building a neighbor
list and acquiring ghost atoms, but do not compute any pairwise
forces.
This can be useful for fixes or computes which require a neighbor list
to enumerate pairs of atoms within some cutoff distance, but when
pairwise forces are not otherwise needed. Examples are the "fix
bond/create"_fix_bond_create.html, "compute rdf"_compute_rdf.html,
"compute voronoi/atom"_compute_voronoi_atom.html commands.
Note that the "comm_modify cutoff"_comm_modify.html command can be
used to insure communication of ghost atoms even when a pair style is
not defined, but it will not trigger neighbor list generation.
The following coefficients must be defined for each pair of atoms
types via the "pair_coeff"_pair_coeff.html command as in the examples
above, or in the data file or restart files read by the
"read_data"_read_data.html or "read_restart"_read_restart.html
commands, or by mixing as described below:
cutoff (distance units) :ul
This coefficient is optional. If not specified, the global cutoff
specified in the pair_style command is used.
[Restrictions:] none

[Default:] none
