A generalization of the Weeks-Chandler-Andersen (WCA) potential.
The Weeks-Chandler-Andersen potential has been introduced by Weeks, Chandler, and Andersen, in J. Chem. Phys. 54, 5237 (1971). DOI: 10.1063/1.1674820
This generalization introduces an offset \( D \) of the particle distance \( r \). With \( \epsilon \) and \( sigma \) being parameters, the interaction potential is given by
\[ 4 * \epsilon * \left( \left( \frac{ \sigma }{ r - D } \right)^{12} - \left( \frac{ \sigma }{ r - D } \right)^{6} + \frac{ 1 }{ 4 } \right) * \theta \left( 2^{1/6} \sigma - r + D \right) \]
with \( \theta \left( x \right) \) being the Heaviside step function, which is \( 1 \) if \( x > 0 \), and \( 0 \) otherwise.
