Physical problem to be solved during this course Given a set of classicalparticles (atomsormolecules) whosemicroscopicstatemay be specified in terms of: - positions - momenta Note thattheclassicaldescription has to be adequate. Ifnotwe can notspecify at thesame time thecoordinates and momenta of a givenmolecule and whoseHamiltonianmay be written as the sum of kinetic and potentialenergyfunctions of the set of coordinates and momenta of eachmolecule Solvenumerically in thecomputertheequations of motionwhichgovernsthe time evolution of thesystem and allitsmechanicalproperties
Note about the generalized coordinates May be simplythe set of cartesiancoordinates of eachatomornucleus in thesystem Sometimesitis more usefultotreatthemolecule as a rigidbody. In this case, willconsist of: - theCartesiancoordinates of the center of mass of eachmolecule - togetherwith a set of variables thatspecifythe molecular orientation In any case, stands fortheappropriate set of conjugatemomenta

The effective pair potential Thepotentialenergymay be dividedintotermsdependingonthecoordinates of individual, pairs, triplets, etc. Thepairwiseapproximationgives a remarkablygooddescriptionbecausetheaveragethreebodyeffects can be partiallyincludedbydefiningan “effective” pairpotential Thepairpotentialsappearing in computersimulations are generallyto be regarded as effectivepairpotentials of thiskind, representingmany-bodyeffects A consequence of thisapproximationisthattheeffectivepairpotentialneededto reproduce experimental data mayturnouttodependonthedensity, temperature, etc. whilethe true two-bodypotentialdoesnot.
