Gaussian overlap model
The Gaussian overlap model was developed by Bruce J. Berne and Philip Pechukas [1]and is given by Eq. 3 in the aforementioned reference:
![{\displaystyle \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}}](https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/06dd600d91f1c00673ec1724076f3ff8697d992a)
where , is the intermolecular pair potential, and are angle dependent strength and range parameters, and is a unit vector. Not long after the introduction of the Gaussian overlap model Stillinger [2] proposed a stripped-down version of the model, known as the Gaussian core model. Note that as this potential becomes the penetrable sphere model.

Phase diagram
The phase diagram of the Gaussian-core model has been calculated by Prestipino et al.[3] while the solid-liquid phase equilibria has been calculated by Mausbach et al [4] using the GWTS algorithm.
