10.1 Overview of Nonbonded Contact Functionality

Mercury will find and display the following types of intermolecular and/or intramolecular nonbonded contacts:

Hydrogen bonds.
Short nonbonded contacts, i.e. all contacts between atoms of any type that are shorter than a specified van der Waals corrected distance (see Section 10.4.1).
Specific nonbonded contacts (i.e. contacts in a specific distance range between atoms of particular types, e.g. chlorine...oxygen contacts in the range 2-4Å).
