  2. Interatomic potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interatomic_potential

    Another class of machine-learned interatomic potential is the Gaussian approximation potential (GAP), [87] [88] [89] which combines compact descriptors of local atomic environments [90] with Gaussian process regression [91] to machine learn the potential energy surface of a given system.

    The equation of motion for the particle derived above = + + can be rewritten using the definition of the Schwarzschild radius r s as = [] + + (+) which is equivalent to a particle moving in a one-dimensional effective potential = + (+) The first two terms are well-known classical energies, the first being the attractive Newtonian gravitational ...

  4. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    The gauge-fixed potentials still have a gauge freedom under all gauge transformations that leave the gauge fixing equations invariant. Inspection of the potential equations suggests two natural choices. In the Coulomb gauge, we impose ∇ ⋅ A = 0, which is mostly used in the case of magneto statics when we can neglect the c −2 ∂ 2 A/∂t ...

  5. Potential energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_energy

    Potential energy is the energy by virtue of an object's position relative to other objects. [6] Potential energy is often associated with restoring forces such as a spring or the force of gravity. The action of stretching a spring or lifting a mass is performed by an external force that works against the force field of the potential.

  6. Gravitational potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_potential

    The gravitational potential (V) at a location is the gravitational potential energy (U) at that location per unit mass: =, where m is the mass of the object. Potential energy is equal (in magnitude, but negative) to the work done by the gravitational field moving a body to its given position in space from infinity.

  7. Potential energy surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_energy_surface

    Energy profiles describe potential energy as a function of geometrical variables (PES in any dimension are independent of time and temperature). H+H2 Potential energy surface. We have different relevant elements in the 2-D PES: The 2-D plot shows the minima points where we find reactants, the products and the saddle point or transition state.

  8. Scalar potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_potential

    Scalar potentials play a prominent role in many areas of physics and engineering. The gravity potential is the scalar potential associated with the gravity per unit mass, i.e., the acceleration due to the field, as a function of position. The gravity potential is the gravitational potential energy per unit mass.

  9. Liénard–Wiechert potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liénard–Wiechert_potential

    The Liénard–Wiechert potentials describe the classical electromagnetic effect of a moving electric point charge in terms of a vector potential and a scalar potential in the Lorenz gauge. Stemming directly from Maxwell's equations , these describe the complete, relativistically correct, time-varying electromagnetic field for a point charge in ...
