Gaussian overlap model
The Gaussian overlap model was developed by Bruce J. Berne and Philip Pechukas [1] and is given by Eq. 3 in the aforementioned reference:
![{\displaystyle \Phi _{12}(\mathbf {u} _{1},\mathbf {u} _{2},\mathbf {r} )=\epsilon (\mathbf {u} _{1},\mathbf {u} _{2})\exp \left[{\frac {-r}{\sigma (\mathbf {u} _{1},\mathbf {u} _{2},{\hat {\mathbf {r} }})}}\right]^{n}}](https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/06dd600d91f1c00673ec1724076f3ff8697d992a)
where , is the intermolecular pair potential, and Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle \sigma (\mathbf {u} _{1},\mathbf {u} _{2},{\hat {\mathbf {r} }})} are angle dependent strength and range parameters, and Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle {\hat {\mathbf {r} }}} is a unit vector. Not long after the introduction of the Gaussian overlap model Stillinger [2] proposed a stripped-down version of the model, known as the Gaussian core model. For a Soft cluster crystal phase has been observed. For Note that as this potential becomes the penetrable sphere model.
