Hi,

No, there's nothing specific for that, other than user-tabulated
interactions (currently only in the group scheme). But this wouldn't help
you exclude the case of atoms coinciding. IIRC the Verlet short-ranged
kernels have some slightly inefficient code that guards against that, but
that wouldn't help you (yet).
