Instructions & Information

Particle types:

  • Click and drag particles to move them manually
  • Adjust temperature to control average particle velocities
  • Modify potential parameters to see different behaviors:
    • Epsilon (ε): controls the strength of LJ interaction
    • Sigma (σ): controls the equilibrium distance between particles
    • Charge (q): controls the strength of electrostatic interaction
  • Visual Scale: adjusts the visualization size (angstroms to pixels)
  • Like charges repel, unlike charges attract
  • All particles experience both Lennard-Jones and Coulomb forces

Type Interactions:

Each type of particle has its own set of interaction parameters. Orange-orange, blue-blue, and orange-blue interactions all use different parameters for more realistic simulations.
