P3M slab

Hi.

I’m studying P3M in slab geometry.

Lammps uses Yeh-Berkowitz approach with non-neutrality to calculate electric force in 2D.

But, I know there is another algorithm P3M/EW3DLC(electrostatic layer correction) which is comparable.

Can I ask the reason why lammps hires Yeh-Berkowitz approach?
