[[long range interactions]] (typically, [[Electrostatics |electrostatic interactions]]). Its aim is the computation of the interaction of a system with [[periodic boundary conditions]] with all its replicas. This is accomplished by the introduction of fictitious "charge clouds" that shield the charges. The interaction is then divided into a shielded part, which may be evaluated by the usual means, and a part that cancels the introduction of the clouds, which is evaluated in [[Fourier_analysis | Fourier space]]. | [[long range interactions]] (typically, [[Electrostatics |electrostatic interactions]]).
