pair_style momb command
=======================
Syntax
""""""
.. code-block:: LAMMPS
pair_style momb cutoff s6 d
* cutoff = global cutoff (distance units)
* s6 = global scaling factor of the exchange-correlation functional used (unitless)
* d = damping scaling factor of Grimme's method (unitless)

Description
"""""""""""
Style *momb* computes pairwise van der Waals (vdW) and short-range
interactions using the Morse potential and :ref:`(Grimme) <Grimme>` method
implemented in the Many-Body Metal-Organic (MOMB) force field
described comprehensively in :ref:`(Fichthorn) <Fichthorn>` and
:ref:`(Zhou) <Zhou5>`. Grimme's method is widely used to correct for
dispersion in density functional theory calculations.
.. math::
E & = D_0 [\exp^{-2 \alpha (r-r_0)} - 2\exp^{-\alpha (r-r_0)}] - s_6 \frac{C_6}{r^6} f_{damp}(r,R_r) \\
f_{damp}(r,R_r) & = \frac{1}{1 + \exp^{-d(r/R_r - 1)}}
For the *momb* pair style, the following coefficients must be defined
for each pair of atoms types via the :doc:`pair_coeff <pair_coeff>`
command as in the examples above, or in the data file or restart files
read by the :doc:`read_data <read_data>` as described below:
* :math:`D_0` (energy units)
* :math:`\alpha` (1/distance units)
* :math:`r_0` (distance units)
* :math:`C_6` (energy\*distance\^6 units)
* :math:`R_r` (distance units, typically sum of atomic vdW radii)

Restrictions
""""""""""""
This style is part of the EXTRA-PAIR package. It is only enabled if
LAMMPS is built with that package. See the :doc:`Build package
<Build_package>` page on for more info.
