 +Depending on the particular LAMMPS format, the usage of the potential might differ slightly. For details please consult the [[https://lammps.sandia.gov/doc/Commands_pair.html|LAMMPS documentation]].

 +Here are some examples for the different formats:

 +**PAIR**

 +PAIR potentials are written for the [[https://lammps.sandia.gov/doc/pair_table.html|table]] pair_style:

 +EAM potentials are written for the eam/alloy pair_style ([[https://lammps.sandia.gov/doc/pair_eam.html|DYNAMO multi-element setfl format]]):
