About this document
Lennard-Jones Potential Overview by Muhamad Rayhan is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The Lennard-Jones potential is a model used to describe intermolecular forces between particles. It balances repulsive and attractive forces as a function of the distance between particles. The potential is lowest at a distance rm, resulting in an attractive well in the graph of potential energy versus distance. The model can be used to derive equations of motion for particles interacting through the Lennard-Jones potential using Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics.
