Definition

The sum of coordination numbers of atoms from the group A with respect to atoms of the group B using a switch function.

$\xi = \sum_{i=1}^{group_A} \sum_{j=1}^{group_B} \left( 1 - 2 \left( \frac { d_{ij} } { d_{cut} } \right)^2 + \left( \frac {d_{ij}}{d_{cut}} \right)^4 \right)$

PBC note: The minimum-image convention is apllied to all atom pair distances if the fenable_pbc option is activated.
