Task

In this example the nucleophile substitution of a Cl^- by another Cl^- in CH₃Cl via meta dynamics is correctly simulated by using extra "repulsive potential walls."

• For isolated atoms and molecules interactions between periodic images are negligible (in sufficiently large cells) hence no Brillouin zone sampling is necessary.
