Definition

The coordination number of central point A with respect to atoms of the group B using a Fermi-like function.

 
 

PBC note: The minimum-image convention is apllied to distances diA if the fenable_pbc option is activated. The convention is not used to calculate the center of mass of the pont A. It is therefore required that atoms within a group are either covalently bound or are part of complex that will not be separated or reimaged during a simulation.
