New many-body potential for the bond order
Abstract
An analytic many-body potential is derived for the bond order of s-valent systems which allows the influence of the local atomic environment on the bond strength to be determined directly. The importance of the three-membered- and four-membered-ring terms on the topology of four-atom clusters is demonstrated. The simplicity of the potential's analytic form will allow the much used embedded atom potentials to be extended to include explicit three-body and four-body terms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
