//potfit// supports various short and long range effective potentials. These potentials are defined either by tabulated functions or analytic parameters and are read from a potential file. The supported potentials can be found in the table below.

Since the computation of the forces consumes the most time of the //potfit// optimization run, support for each type of interaction has to be enabled explicitly before compiling a binary.

==  Interaction Table  ==
This table shows the current progress of implementing new potential models in //potfit//.
