co2-potential 0.3.2

A Python package interfacing with the CO2CO2 shared library.

CO₂–CO₂ Potential Energy Library

High-performance C++ routines for computing CO₂ dimer potentials (1-body, 2-body, SAPT-S), exposed to Python via a ctypes wrapper (and optionally a pybind11 module).

Installation

1. Prerequisites

• C++ compiler (GCC/Clang) supporting C++17
• Python 3.6+ and pip
• (Optional) ccache for faster recompiles

2. Install via pip

From project root:

pip install .

This will:

1. Invoke the custom build_ext command in setup.py
2. cd src-autodiff && make clean && make
3. Copy libCO2CO2.so into the co2_potential/ package
4. Build & install the Python wheel

3. Manual Build (if needed)

If you want to rebuild by hand:

cd src-autodiff
make clean
make -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
# or add OP=-O2 in Makefile for faster debug builds

Then copy the resulting libCO2CO2.so into the Python package:

cp libCO2CO2.so ../co2_potential/

Usage

import numpy as np
from co2_potential.wrapper import p1b, p2b_4, p2b_5, sapt

# Example: 6-atom dimer → 18 coordinates
xyz = np.array([
    0.0,   0.0,  0.000,    # monomer A: C, O, O
    0.0,   0.0, -1.162,
    0.0,   0.0,  1.162,
    3.75,  0.0,  0.000,    # monomer B: C, O, O
    3.75,  0.0, -1.162,
    3.75,  0.0,  1.162
], dtype=np.double)

E1 = p1b(xyz)        # 1-body energy
E2_4 = p2b_4(xyz)    # 2-body 4th‐order
E2_5 = p2b_5(xyz)    # 2-body 5th‐order
Es = sapt(xyz)       # SAPT-S energy

print(f"E1 = {E1:.6f}, E2(5) = {E2_5:.6f}, SAPT = {Es:.6f}")

If you built a pybind11 module under co2_potential/python/module.cpp, simply:

import co2_potential
# co2_potential.p1b, co2_potential.p2b_5, co2_potential.sapt, …

Functionality

The library provides the following Python functions via co2_potential.wrapper:

• get_p2b_5_dim(): Returns the number of coordinates for 2-body 5th-order.
• get_sapt_dim(): Returns the number of coordinates for SAPT-S.
• get_version(): Returns the version string of the underlying C++ library.

The core computations are implemented in C++ for performance and exposed to Python via a ctypes wrapper.
