Example: Multiple Interaction Potentials

Trajectories of hydrogen and helium ions at 2 keV on a layered TiO2-Al-Si target.

This example demonstrates the ability of rustbca to include multiple interaction potentials. In particular, this example shows 2 keV hydrogen and helium incident on a layered TiO2-Al-Si target. Helium interacts with all target species with a Lennard-Jones 6.5-6 potential. Hydrogen interacts with all target species with a Kr-C screened potential. All target species interact with each other through Kr-C potentials.
