I am using the units microns and
atom_style sphere n
neighbor 0.002 bin
neigh_modify delay 0
with the configuration of the data file below
5 atoms
0 bonds
1 atom types
0 bond types
-0.1 0.1 xlo xhi
-0.1 0.1 ylo yhi
0 0.1 zlo zhi
Atoms # full atom id atom type diameter density xyz(for sphere)
1 1 1 1500000000 -0.067200 0.000000 0.004650
2 1 1 1500000000 -0.057600 -0.028800 0.004650
3 1 1 1500000000 -0.057600 -0.019200 0.004650
4 1 1 1500000000 -0.057600 -0.009600 0.004650
5 1 1 1500000000 -0.057600 -0.009600 0.009300
the code runs fine but actually it shouldn't as the diameter here is 1 micron and volume of region is small enough to not fit all the particles as they are spherical particles. So, my question is how does the code runs as these spherical particles shouldn't fit in the box defined
