LAMMPS

LAMMPS


Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (LAMMPS) is a classical molecular dynamics code with a focus on materials modeling [1]. LAMMPS includes interaction potentials for many materials and chemical complexes. LAMMPS is distributed by Sandia National Laboratories, a US Department of Energy laboratory. We have utilized it for simulations of plasma-surface and beam-material interactions, see e.g. Ref.[2].
