Hi Mark. Haven't got exactly what you said. So let me rephrase myself:
The CF4 molecule doesn't have dihedrals nor intramolecular LJ and coulombic contributions. What kind of contribution am I missing that makes potential energy minus bond stretching minus angle bending *different* from Lj + coulomb(SR) + coulomb (LR) + Disp correction? Thanks a lot in advance, Sincerally yours, Jones On 6/23/07, Mark Abraham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Dunno since we can't read your mind about the sort of calculation you did... What does your logfile have? > Another question: what exactly is the "coul. recip." standing for?

It sounds like you should read the section in chapter 4(?) of the manual that describes this. The reason it's large is that it has (roughly) all the long-range contributions from all of the atoms, and I don't think these can be sensibly broken down into by-atom components. So if you're interested in determining intermolecular energies, for some reason, you should design a simulation protocol that has a chance of doing this. In a GROMACS context, that probably means GRF electrostatics.
