The '''Verlet leap-frog algorithm''' | The '''Verlet leap-frog algorithm''' is a variant of the original Verlet scheme <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRev.159.98 Loup Verlet "Computer "Experiments" on Classical Fluids. I. Thermodynamical Properties of Lennard-Jones Molecules", Physical Review '''159''' pp. 98-103 (1967)]</ref> for use in [[molecular dynamics]] simulations. The algorithm is given by: | ||
:<math>r(t + \delta t) = r (t) + \delta t v\left(t+ \frac{1}{2} \delta t\right)</math> | :<math>r(t + \delta t) = r (t) + \delta t v\left(t+ \frac{1}{2} \delta t\right)</math> | ||
