			dielectric command :h3

			[Syntax:]

			dielectric value :pre

			value = dielectric constant :ul

			[Examples:]

			dielectric 2.0 :pre

			[Description:]

			Set the dielectric constant for Coulombic interactions (pairwise and
			long-range) to this value. The constant is unitless, since it is used
			to reduce the strength of the interactions. The value is used in the
			denominator of the formulas for Coulombic interactions - e.g. a value
			of 4.0 reduces the Coulombic interactions to 25% of their default
			strength. See the "pair_style"_pair_style.html command for more
			details.

			[Restrictions:] none

			[Related commands:]

			"pair_style"_pair_style.html

			[Default:]

			dielectric 1.0 :pre
