species specifies the labels for the unique atomic species in the simulation, as found in the input XYZ file. It is always used in conjunction with n_species, and has dimensions n_species. A maximum of 8 characters per species can be used. Usually, there is no reason to use more than two characters, e.g., "Fe" for iron.
