 <P><B>Description:</B>
 </P>
 <P>Set weighting coefficients for pairwise energy and force contributions
 between pairs of atoms that are also permanently bonded to each other,
 either directly or via one or two intermediate bonds.  These weighting
 factors are used by nearly all <A HREF = "pair_style.html">pair styles</A> in LAMMPS
 that compute simple pairwise interactions.  Permanent bonds between
 atoms are specified by defining the bond topology in the data file
 read by the <A HREF = "read_data.html">read_data</A> command.  Typically a
 <A HREF = "bond_style.html">bond_style</A> command is also used to define a bond
 potential.  The rationale for using these weighting factors is that
 the interaction between a pair of bonded atoms is all (or mostly)
 specified by the bond, angle, dihedral potentials, and thus the
 non-bonded Lennard-Jones or Coulombic interaction between the pair of
 atoms should be excluded (or reduced by a weighting factor).
 </P>
 <P>IMPORTANT NOTE: These weighting factors are NOT used by <A HREF = "pair_style.html">pair
 styles</A> that compute many-body interactions, since the
 "bonds" that result from such interactions are not permanent, but are
 created and broken dynamically as atom conformations change.  Examples
 of pair styles in this category are EAM, MEAM, Stillinger-Weber,
 Tersoff, COMB, AIREBO, and ReaxFF.  In fact, it generally makes no
 sense to define permanent bonds between atoms that interact via these
 potentials, though such bonds may exist elsewhere in your system,
 e.g. when using the <A HREF = "pair_hybrid.html">pair_style hybrid</A> command.
 Thus LAMMPS ignores special_bonds settings when manybody potentials
 are calculated.
 </P>
+<P>IMPORTANT NOTE: Unlike some commands in LAMMPS, you cannot use this
+command multiple times in an incremental fashion: e.g. to first set
+the LJ settings and then the Coulombic ones.  Each time you use this
+command it sets all the coefficients to default values and only
+overrides the one you specify, so you should set all the options you
+need each time you use it.  See more details at the bottom of this
+page.
+</P>
 <P>The Coulomb factors are applied to any Coulomb (charge interaction)
 term that the potential calculates.  The LJ factors are applied to the
 remaining terms that the potential calculates, whether they represent
 LJ interactions or not.  The weighting factors are a scaling
 pre-factor on the energy and force between the pair of atoms.  A value
 of 1.0 means include the full interaction; a value of 0.0 means
 exclude it completely.
 </P>
 <P>The 1st of the 3 coefficients (LJ or Coulombic) is the weighting
 factor on 1-2 atom pairs, which are pairs of atoms directly bonded to
 each other.  The 2nd coefficient is the weighting factor on 1-3 atom
 pairs which are those separated by 2 bonds (e.g. the two H atoms in a
 water molecule).  The 3rd coefficient is the weighting factor on 1-4
 atom pairs which are those separated by 3 bonds (e.g. the 1st and 4th
 atoms in a dihedral interaction).  Thus if the 1-2 coefficient is set
 to 0.0, then the pairwise interaction is effectively turned off for
 all pairs of atoms bonded to each other.  If it is set to 1.0, then
 that interaction will be at full strength.
 </P>
 <P>IMPORTANT NOTE: For purposes of computing weighted pairwise
 interactions, 1-3 and 1-4 interactions are not defined from the list
 of angles or dihedrals used by the simulation.  Rather, they are
 inferred topologically from the set of bonds specified when the
 simulation is defined from a data or restart file (see
 <A HREF = "read_data.html">read_data</A> or <A HREF = "read_restart.html">read_restart</A>
 commands).  Thus the set of 1-2,1-3,1-4 interactions that the weights
 apply to is the same whether angle and dihedral potentials are
 computed or not, and remains the same even if bonds are constrained,
 or turned off, or removed during a simulation.
 </P>
 <P>The two exceptions to this rule are (a) if the <I>angle</I> or <I>dihedral</I>
 keywords are set to <I>yes</I> (see below), or (b) if the
 <A HREF = "delete_bonds.html">delete_bonds</A> command is used with the <I>special</I>
 option that recomputes the 1-2,1-3,1-4 topologies after bonds are
 deleted; see the <A HREF = "delete_bonds.html">delete_bonds</A> command for more
 details.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>amber</I> keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 0.0, 0.5 for LJ
 interactions and to 0.0, 0.0, 0.8333 for Coulombic interactions, which
 is the default for a commonly used version of the AMBER force field,
 where the last value is really 5/6.  See <A HREF = "#Cornell">(Cornell)</A> for a
 description of the AMBER force field.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>charmm</I> keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 for both
 LJ and Coulombic interactions, which is the default for a commonly
 used version of the CHARMM force field.  Note that in pair styles
 <I>lj/charmm/coul/charmm</I> and <I>lj/charmm/coul/long</I> the 1-4 coefficients
 are defined explicitly, and these pairwise contributions are computed
 as part of the charmm dihedral style - see the
 <A HREF = "pair_coeff.html">pair_coeff</A> and <A HREF = "dihedral_style.html">dihedral_style</A>
 commands for more information.  See <A HREF = "#MacKerell">(MacKerell)</A> for a
 description of the CHARMM force field.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>dreiding</I> keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 0.0, 1.0 for both
 LJ and Coulombic interactions, which is the default for the Dreiding
 force field, as discussed in <A HREF = "#Mayo">(Mayo)</A>.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>fene</I> keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 1.0, 1.0 for both
 LJ and Coulombic interactions, which is consistent with a
 coarse-grained polymer model with <A HREF = "bond_fene.html">FENE bonds</A>.  See
 <A HREF = "#Kremer">(Kremer)</A> for a description of FENE bonds.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>lj/coul</I>, <I>lj</I>, and <I>coul</I> keywords allow the 3 coefficients to
 be set explicitly.  The <I>lj/coul</I> keyword sets both the LJ and
 Coulombic coefficients to the same 3 values.  The <I>lj</I> and <I>coul</I>
 keywords only set either the LJ or Coulombic coefficients.  Use both
 of them if you wish to set the LJ coefficients to different values
 than the Coulombic coefficients.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>angle</I> keyword allows the 1-3 weighting factor to be ignored for
 individual atom pairs if they are not listed as the first and last
 atoms in any angle defined in the simulation or as 1,3 or 2,4 atoms in
 any dihedral defined in the simulation.  For example, imagine the 1-3
 weighting factor is set to 0.5 and you have a linear molecule with 4
 atoms and bonds as follows: 1-2-3-4.  If your data file defines 1-2-3
 as an angle, but does not define 2-3-4 as an angle or 1-2-3-4 as a
 dihedral, then the pairwise interaction between atoms 1 and 3 will
 always be weighted by 0.5, but different force fields use different
 rules for weighting the pairwise interaction between atoms 2 and 4.
 If the <I>angle</I> keyword is specified as <I>yes</I>, then the pairwise
 interaction between atoms 2 and 4 will be unaffected (full weighting
 of 1.0).  If the <I>angle</I> keyword is specified as <I>no</I> which is the
 default, then the 2,4 interaction will also be weighted by 0.5.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>dihedral</I> keyword allows the 1-4 weighting factor to be ignored
 for individual atom pairs if they are not listed as the first and last
 atoms in any dihedral defined in the simulation.  For example, imagine
 the 1-4 weighting factor is set to 0.5 and you have a linear molecule
 with 5 atoms and bonds as follows: 1-2-3-4-5.  If your data file
 defines 1-2-3-4 as a dihedral, but does not define 2-3-4-5 as a
 dihedral, then the pairwise interaction between atoms 1 and 4 will
 always be weighted by 0.5, but different force fields use different
 rules for weighting the pairwise interaction between atoms 2 and 5.
 If the <I>dihedral</I> keyword is specified as <I>yes</I>, then the pairwise
 interaction between atoms 2 and 5 will be unaffected (full weighting
 of 1.0).  If the <I>dihedral</I> keyword is specified as <I>no</I> which is the
 default, then the 2,5 interaction will also be weighted by 0.5.
 </P>
 <P>The <I>extra</I> keyword can be used when additional bonds will be created
 during a simulation run, e.g. by the <A HREF = "fix_bond_create.html">fix
 bond/create</A> command.  It can also be used if
 molecules will be added to the system, e.g. via the <A HREF = "fix_deposit.html">fix
 deposit</A>, or <A HREF = "fix_pour.html">fix pour</A> commands, which
 will have atoms with more special neighbors than any atom in the
 current system has.  
 </P>
+<HR>
+
 <P>IMPORTANT NOTE: LAMMPS stores and maintains a data structure with a
 list of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd neighbors of each atom (within the bond
 topology of the system).  If new bonds are created (or molecules added
 containing atoms with more special neighbors), the size of this list
 needs to grow.  Note that adding a single bond always adds a new 1st
 neighbor but may also induce *many* new 2nd and 3rd neighbors,
 depending on the molecular topology of your syste.  Using the <I>extra</I>
 keyword leaves empty space in the list for this N additional 1st, 2nd,
 or 3rd neighbors to be added.  If you do not do this, you may get an
 error when bonds (or molecules) are added.
 </P>
+<HR>
+
 <P>IMPORTANT NOTE: If you reuse this command in an input script, you
 should set all the options you need each time.  This command cannot be
 used a 2nd time incrementally, e.g. to add some extra storage
 locations via the <I>extra</I> keyword.  E.g. these two commands:
 </P>
+<P>special_bonds lj 0.0 1.0 1.0

+<P>are not the same as 
+</P>
+<P>special_bonds lj 0.0 1.0 1.0 coul 0.0 0.0 1.0
+</P>
+<P>In the first case you end up with (after the 2nd command):
+</P>
+<P>LJ: 0.0 0.0 0.0
+Coul: coul 0.0 0.0 1.0
+</P>
+<P>because the LJ settings are reset to their default values

 </P>
 <PRE>special_bonds amber extra 2 
 </PRE>
 <P>since in the former case, the 2nd command will reset all the LJ and
 Coulombic weights to 0.0 (the default).
 </P>
 <P>One exception to this rule is the <I>extra</I> option itself.  It is not
 reset to its default value of 0 each time the special_bonds command is
 invoked.  This is because it can also be set by the
 <A HREF = "read_data.html">read_data</A> and <A HREF = "create_box.html">create_box</A> commands,

 [Description:]
 
 Set weighting coefficients for pairwise energy and force contributions
 between pairs of atoms that are also permanently bonded to each other,
 either directly or via one or two intermediate bonds.  These weighting
 factors are used by nearly all "pair styles"_pair_style.html in LAMMPS
 that compute simple pairwise interactions.  Permanent bonds between
 atoms are specified by defining the bond topology in the data file
 read by the "read_data"_read_data.html command.  Typically a
 "bond_style"_bond_style.html command is also used to define a bond
 potential.  The rationale for using these weighting factors is that
 the interaction between a pair of bonded atoms is all (or mostly)
 specified by the bond, angle, dihedral potentials, and thus the
 non-bonded Lennard-Jones or Coulombic interaction between the pair of
 atoms should be excluded (or reduced by a weighting factor).
 
 IMPORTANT NOTE: These weighting factors are NOT used by "pair
 styles"_pair_style.html that compute many-body interactions, since the
 "bonds" that result from such interactions are not permanent, but are
 created and broken dynamically as atom conformations change.  Examples
 of pair styles in this category are EAM, MEAM, Stillinger-Weber,
 Tersoff, COMB, AIREBO, and ReaxFF.  In fact, it generally makes no
 sense to define permanent bonds between atoms that interact via these
 potentials, though such bonds may exist elsewhere in your system,
 e.g. when using the "pair_style hybrid"_pair_hybrid.html command.
 Thus LAMMPS ignores special_bonds settings when manybody potentials
 are calculated.
 
+IMPORTANT NOTE: Unlike some commands in LAMMPS, you cannot use this
+command multiple times in an incremental fashion: e.g. to first set
+the LJ settings and then the Coulombic ones.  Each time you use this
+command it sets all the coefficients to default values and only

 The Coulomb factors are applied to any Coulomb (charge interaction)
 term that the potential calculates.  The LJ factors are applied to the
 remaining terms that the potential calculates, whether they represent
 LJ interactions or not.  The weighting factors are a scaling
 pre-factor on the energy and force between the pair of atoms.  A value
 of 1.0 means include the full interaction; a value of 0.0 means
 exclude it completely.
 
 The 1st of the 3 coefficients (LJ or Coulombic) is the weighting
 factor on 1-2 atom pairs, which are pairs of atoms directly bonded to
 each other.  The 2nd coefficient is the weighting factor on 1-3 atom
 pairs which are those separated by 2 bonds (e.g. the two H atoms in a
 water molecule).  The 3rd coefficient is the weighting factor on 1-4
 atom pairs which are those separated by 3 bonds (e.g. the 1st and 4th
 atoms in a dihedral interaction).  Thus if the 1-2 coefficient is set
 to 0.0, then the pairwise interaction is effectively turned off for
 all pairs of atoms bonded to each other.  If it is set to 1.0, then
 that interaction will be at full strength.
 
 IMPORTANT NOTE: For purposes of computing weighted pairwise
 interactions, 1-3 and 1-4 interactions are not defined from the list
 of angles or dihedrals used by the simulation.  Rather, they are
 inferred topologically from the set of bonds specified when the
 simulation is defined from a data or restart file (see
 "read_data"_read_data.html or "read_restart"_read_restart.html
 commands).  Thus the set of 1-2,1-3,1-4 interactions that the weights
 apply to is the same whether angle and dihedral potentials are
 computed or not, and remains the same even if bonds are constrained,
 or turned off, or removed during a simulation.
 
 The two exceptions to this rule are (a) if the {angle} or {dihedral}
 keywords are set to {yes} (see below), or (b) if the
 "delete_bonds"_delete_bonds.html command is used with the {special}
 option that recomputes the 1-2,1-3,1-4 topologies after bonds are
 deleted; see the "delete_bonds"_delete_bonds.html command for more
 details.
 
 The {amber} keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 0.0, 0.5 for LJ
 interactions and to 0.0, 0.0, 0.8333 for Coulombic interactions, which
 is the default for a commonly used version of the AMBER force field,
 where the last value is really 5/6.  See "(Cornell)"_#Cornell for a
 description of the AMBER force field.
 
 The {charmm} keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 for both
 LJ and Coulombic interactions, which is the default for a commonly
 used version of the CHARMM force field.  Note that in pair styles
 {lj/charmm/coul/charmm} and {lj/charmm/coul/long} the 1-4 coefficients
 are defined explicitly, and these pairwise contributions are computed
 as part of the charmm dihedral style - see the
 "pair_coeff"_pair_coeff.html and "dihedral_style"_dihedral_style.html
 commands for more information.  See "(MacKerell)"_#MacKerell for a
 description of the CHARMM force field.
 
 The {dreiding} keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 0.0, 1.0 for both
 LJ and Coulombic interactions, which is the default for the Dreiding
 force field, as discussed in "(Mayo)"_#Mayo.
 
 The {fene} keyword sets the 3 coefficients to 0.0, 1.0, 1.0 for both
 LJ and Coulombic interactions, which is consistent with a
 coarse-grained polymer model with "FENE bonds"_bond_fene.html.  See
 "(Kremer)"_#Kremer for a description of FENE bonds.
 
 The {lj/coul}, {lj}, and {coul} keywords allow the 3 coefficients to
 be set explicitly.  The {lj/coul} keyword sets both the LJ and
 Coulombic coefficients to the same 3 values.  The {lj} and {coul}
 keywords only set either the LJ or Coulombic coefficients.  Use both
 of them if you wish to set the LJ coefficients to different values
 than the Coulombic coefficients.
 
 The {angle} keyword allows the 1-3 weighting factor to be ignored for
 individual atom pairs if they are not listed as the first and last
 atoms in any angle defined in the simulation or as 1,3 or 2,4 atoms in
 any dihedral defined in the simulation.  For example, imagine the 1-3
 weighting factor is set to 0.5 and you have a linear molecule with 4
 atoms and bonds as follows: 1-2-3-4.  If your data file defines 1-2-3
 as an angle, but does not define 2-3-4 as an angle or 1-2-3-4 as a
 dihedral, then the pairwise interaction between atoms 1 and 3 will
 always be weighted by 0.5, but different force fields use different
 rules for weighting the pairwise interaction between atoms 2 and 4.
 If the {angle} keyword is specified as {yes}, then the pairwise
 interaction between atoms 2 and 4 will be unaffected (full weighting
 of 1.0).  If the {angle} keyword is specified as {no} which is the
 default, then the 2,4 interaction will also be weighted by 0.5.
 
 The {dihedral} keyword allows the 1-4 weighting factor to be ignored
 for individual atom pairs if they are not listed as the first and last
 atoms in any dihedral defined in the simulation.  For example, imagine
 the 1-4 weighting factor is set to 0.5 and you have a linear molecule
 with 5 atoms and bonds as follows: 1-2-3-4-5.  If your data file
 defines 1-2-3-4 as a dihedral, but does not define 2-3-4-5 as a
 dihedral, then the pairwise interaction between atoms 1 and 4 will
 always be weighted by 0.5, but different force fields use different
 rules for weighting the pairwise interaction between atoms 2 and 5.
 If the {dihedral} keyword is specified as {yes}, then the pairwise
 interaction between atoms 2 and 5 will be unaffected (full weighting
 of 1.0).  If the {dihedral} keyword is specified as {no} which is the
 default, then the 2,5 interaction will also be weighted by 0.5.
 
 The {extra} keyword can be used when additional bonds will be created
 during a simulation run, e.g. by the "fix
 bond/create"_fix_bond_create.html command.  It can also be used if
 molecules will be added to the system, e.g. via the "fix
 deposit"_fix_deposit.html, or "fix pour"_fix_pour.html commands, which
 will have atoms with more special neighbors than any atom in the
 current system has.

 IMPORTANT NOTE: LAMMPS stores and maintains a data structure with a
 list of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd neighbors of each atom (within the bond
 topology of the system).  If new bonds are created (or molecules added

 neighbor but may also induce *many* new 2nd and 3rd neighbors,
 depending on the molecular topology of your syste.  Using the {extra}
 keyword leaves empty space in the list for this N additional 1st, 2nd,
 or 3rd neighbors to be added.  If you do not do this, you may get an
 error when bonds (or molecules) are added.

 IMPORTANT NOTE: If you reuse this command in an input script, you
 should set all the options you need each time.  This command cannot be
 used a 2nd time incrementally, e.g. to add some extra storage
 locations via the {extra} keyword.  E.g. these two commands:
 
+special_bonds lj 0.0 1.0 1.0

+

+

 reset to its default value of 0 each time the special_bonds command is
 invoked.  This is because it can also be set by the
 "read_data"_read_data.html and "create_box"_create_box.html commands,
 so this command will not override those settings unless you explicitly
 use {extra} as an option.
 
 [Restrictions:] none
 
 [Related commands:]
 
 "delete_bonds"_delete_bonds.html, "fix bond/create"_fix_bond_create.html
 
 [Default:]
 
 All 3 Lennard-Jones and 3 Coulombic weighting coefficients = 0.0,
 angle = no, dihedral = no, and extra = 0.
