Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A classical computer simulation study of the dynamical structure factor S(Q,ω) for a simple model of solid β-N is reported. We utilized a hexagonal system composed of 288 molecules interacting via a (12-6) atom-atom potential. Periodic boundary conditions were used to simulate the infinite crystal. The molecular half-bond length d was assumed to be given by d = 0.1646σ, where σ is the zero of the atom-atom potential. The molecular density p = Nσ/V = 0.836 and the temperature T = 1.27 ε/kB (ε is the potential well depth) were such that using recently proposed potential parameters our thermodynamic state corresponded to V = 26.1 cmmole, T =47.4 K. When compared with real β-N under these conditions our calculated pressure is a little too high, and the transverse optic, Raman active frequency too low. For small wave vectors Q≲2 Å, the full dynamical structure factor shows phonon peaks which are virtually indistinguishable from those due to the center of mass motion, while at larger Q (between 4.8 and 6.4 Å) the spectra are dominated by the reorientational motion of the molecules. The computer simulation phonon energies are compared with lattice dynamical calculations employing an intermolecular potential derived from the spherical average of the atom-atom potential. There is particularly poor agreement for long wavelength shear modes, probably due to the neglect (in the lattice dynamical calculations) of the coupling of these modes to molecular reorientational motion.
