Hi All, I have a membrane-protein-solvent system, and I want the potential across the membrane in the direction of the membrane normal. I have 2 questions in that regard. 1) We know that epsilon_r = 80 for the water, ~7 for the membrane-water interface and ~2 for the hydrophobic membrane core. g_potential returns the result for epsilon_r = 1. How can I incorporate this into the result?
I'd venture a guess that the value of epsilon_r in the output is the same as the interpretation of epsilon_r in the .mdp file - it is the relative dielectric permittivity. A value of 1 means don't scale anything; see previous discussions.
2) Default ng =1? Is the number of groups referring to the number of charge groups defined in the topology?
No, that means the number of groups you want to analyze, just like g_rdf and other tools sometimes give the option of doing multiple analyses at the same time.
