<LI>scale = scale factor between lattice and simulation box 

<PRE>  for style <I>none</I>:

    scale is not specified (nor any optional args)

    scale is not specified (nor any optional arguments)

  for all other styles:

    scale = reduced density rho* (for LJ units)

    scale = lattice constant in Angstroms (for real or metal units) 

    scale = lattice constant in distance units (for non-LJ units) 

</PRE>

<LI>zero or more keyword/value pairs may be appended 

The meaning of the <I>scale</I> argument depends on the <A HREF = "unit.html">units</A>

being used in your simulation.

</P>

<P>For unit style <I>real</I> or <I>metal</I>, the scale argument is in Angstroms.

For example, if the unit cell is a unit cube with edge length 1.0,

setting scale = 3.52 would create a cubic lattice with a spacing of

3.52 Angstroms.

<P>For all unit styles except <I>lj</I>, the scale argument is specified in

the distance units defined by the unit style.  For example, in <I>real</I>

or <I>metal</I> units, if the unit cell is a unit cube with edge length

1.0, specifying scale = 3.52 would create a cubic lattice with a

spacing of 3.52 Angstroms.  In <I>cgs</I> units, the spacing would be 3.52

cm.

</P>

<P>For unit style <I>lj</I>, the scale argument is the Lennard-Jones reduced

density, typically written as rho*.  LAMMPS converts this value into

        {sq} or {sq2} or {hex} or {custom} :ulb,l

The meaning of the {scale} argument depends on the "units"_unit.html

being used in your simulation.

For unit style {real} or {metal}, the scale argument is in Angstroms.

For example, if the unit cell is a unit cube with edge length 1.0,

setting scale = 3.52 would create a cubic lattice with a spacing of

3.52 Angstroms.

For all unit styles except {lj}, the scale argument is specified in

the distance units defined by the unit style.  For example, in {real}

or {metal} units, if the unit cell is a unit cube with edge length

1.0, specifying scale = 3.52 would create a cubic lattice with a

spacing of 3.52 Angstroms.  In {cgs} units, the spacing would be 3.52

cm.

For unit style {lj}, the scale argument is the Lennard-Jones reduced

density, typically written as rho*.  LAMMPS converts this value into
