Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Noble Gases
摘要
This chapter presents a detailed exploration of a Python code generated by ChatGPT-4 for the 2D Molecular Dynamics simulation of noble gases, with a specific focus on Argon. The chapter discusses the implementation of the velocity Verlet algorithm for integrating Newton’s second law and the application of the Lennard-Jones (12–6) pair potential to model the interactions between Argon atoms. The code is rigorously verified through a series of tests, emphasizing energy conservation within an NVE ensemble. Both simple two-atom systems and more complex multi-atom simulations within a periodic boundary condition framework are analyzed, demonstrating the code’s accuracy and reliability in simulating molecular dynamics in noble gases.
