Thank you Mark, for your answer.
This time I have another issue: temperature.
What are the ways to control temperature in gromacs (during heating or equilibration phases), other than temperature coupling?


I don't see how that's even possible. By definition, temperature control is the job of a thermostat. The sd integrator provides this function as well, by way of a Langevin thermostat, but that's really the same thing as using temperature coupling, anyway, it's just not a "tcoupl" option.

        Hello,
        I'm experiencing some difficulties with gromacs. In order to
        control my system's density, I have to use g_energy or g_density.


    Those tools report density-related quantities, they do not control it.


        However, when I use g_energy, in my list, "Density" doesn't appear.


    g_energy doesn't report the density if you have a constant-volume
    simulation (but grompp probably reported it when you generated the .tpr)


        Else, if I use g_density, it needs a file traj.xtc which I don't
        have.


    Per Erik's point, you can usually use any coordinate file or
    trajectory file.

    Mark


        So please can anyone tell me how to check my system's density in
        gromacs?

        Thank you
