Description
"""""""""""
Style *beck* computes interactions based on the potential by
:ref:`(Beck) <Beck>`, originally designed for simulation of Helium. It
includes truncation at a cutoff distance :math:`r_c`.
.. math::
E(r) &= A \exp\left[-\alpha r - \beta r^6\right] - \frac{B}{\left(r^2+a^2\right)^3} \left(1+\frac{2.709+3a^2}{r^2+a^2}\right) \qquad r < r_c \\
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>` or :doc:`read_restart <read_restart>`
commands.
* :math:`A` (energy units)
* :math:`B` (energy-distance\^6 units)
* :math:`a` (distance units)
* :math:`\alpha` (1/distance units)
* :math:`\beta` (1/distance\^6 units)
* cutoff (distance units)
The last coefficient is optional. If not specified, the global cutoff
:math:`r_c` is used.

Mixing, shift, table, tail correction, restart, rRESPA info
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
For atom type pairs I,J and I != J, coefficients must be specified.
No default mixing rules are used.
This pair style does not support the :doc:`pair_modify <pair_modify>` shift
option for the energy of the pair interaction.
The :doc:`pair_modify <pair_modify>` table option is not relevant
for this pair style.
This pair style does not support the :doc:`pair_modify <pair_modify>`
tail option for adding long-range tail corrections.
This pair style writes its information to :doc:`binary restart files <restart>`, so pair_style and pair_coeff commands do not need
to be specified in an input script that reads a restart file.
This pair style can only be used via the *pair* keyword of the
:doc:`run_style respa <run_style>` command. It does not support the
*inner*, *middle*, *outer* keywords.
----------
Restrictions
""""""""""""
This pair style is part of the EXTRA-PAIR package. It is only enabled if
LAMMPS was built with that package. See the
:doc:`Build package <Build_package>` page for more info.
