[gmx-users] Applying a Lennard-Jones Gauss potential function for TIP5P water

2013-04-18 Thread Andrish Reddy
Greetings, 

I am simulating a box of TIP5P waters and I would like to know if it is 
possible to change the standard LJ potential function to a more complex one 
(LJ-Gauss), while keeping the coulombic interaction standard. The custom 
potential will act between the oxygen atoms only and has the form: 
eps*[(sig/r)^12 - 2*(sig/r)^6] - epsG*[exp-(((r-rG)^2) / (2*sigG^2))] where 
epsG, sigG and rG are new parameters. 

Can this be accomplished using tables, a custom force field / topology, or 
other? 
I would appreciate any suggestions relating to how this can be done.

Thanks,
Andrish

Tabulated potentials are the best bet.
