Editing Gaussian overlap model

The '''Gaussian overlap model''' was developed by Bruce J. Berne and Philip Pechukas <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1677837     Bruce J. Berne and Philip Pechukas  "Gaussian Model Potentials for Molecular Interactions" Journal of Chemical Physics '''56''' pp. 4213-4216  (1972)]</ref>and is given by Eq. 3 in the aforementioned reference:

:<math>\Phi_{12}(\mathbf{u}_1,\mathbf{u}_2,\mathbf{r}) = \epsilon(\mathbf{u}_1,\mathbf{u}_2) \exp \left[ \frac{-r}{\sigma (\mathbf{u}_1,\mathbf{u}_2, \hat{\mathbf{r}}) } \right]^n</math>

where <math>n=2</math>, <math>\Phi_{12}(r)</math> is the [[intermolecular pair potential]], <math> \epsilon(\mathbf{u}_1,\mathbf{u}_2) </math> and <math>\sigma (\mathbf{u}_1,\mathbf{u}_2, \hat{\mathbf{r}})</math> are angle dependent strength and range parameters, and <math>\hat{\mathbf{r}}</math> is a unit vector. Not long after the introduction of the Gaussian overlap model Stillinger <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.432891 Frank H. Stillinger "Phase transitions in the Gaussian core system", Journal of Chemical Physics '''65''' pp. 3968-3974 (1976)]</ref> proposed a stripped-down version of the  model, known as the '''Gaussian core model'''. For <math>n=4</math> a [[Soft cluster crystal phase]] has been observed. For Note that as <math>n \rightarrow \infty</math>
this potential becomes the [[penetrable sphere model]].
