Field¶

class hoomd.md.external.field.Field¶

Bases: Force

Base class external field force.

External potentials represent forces which are applied to all particles in the simulation by an external agent.

Warning

This class should not be instantiated by users. The class can be used for isinstance or issubclass checks.
