RE: [gmx-users] g_vanhove output

2009-08-04 Thread Berk Hess

I think I coded this all correctly, but the last time I used it was years ago.

In 3D you could plot G(x), G1(y) and G(z), which are equal for an isotropic 
liquid.
-or plots g(r) which is 2 pi r^2 G(r)

Thanks Berk.I did look at the code, but it is not that easy to understand.My 
conclusion comes from this:for a diffusive regime, G(r) should be a gaussian 
function, with the diffusioncoefficient characterizing the width.I did some 
tests, and I could match both curves (one from g_vanhove and the other from the 
diff.coef) only if I multiply the output of g_vanhove by r and normalizing 
again, which makes little sense to me.It would be ok to output G(r) or 
r^2*G(r), but to output r*G(r) seems a mistake
Thanks again,Marcelo
PS: I did consider the spherical integration.

It gives the probability that a particle has moved a distance r.
The 1/nm is the normalization to make the values bin-size independent.

Might it be that the difference in interpretation comes from if you consider
normalization of the volume of sphere-shells or not?

[gmx-users] g_vanhove output

2009-08-04 Thread Marcelo Carignano

Hi all,
I believe there is a mistake in g_vanhove in version 4.0.5
The 'xvg' output file labels the y axis as G, with nm^-1 as units.
From the units, I guessed that the output was actually r^2 G, however
the initial slope is linear and not quadratic. After a few tries I  
concluded that

the output is actually r*G, which is not something really useful.
I wonder if someone could look at the code and confirm this doubt in
one way or another.

Many thank,

Marcelo Carignano.
