RE: [gmx-users] umbrella potential

2009-09-21 Thread Berk Hess

You should also be aware that when you determine a PDF for a distance
constrained in 3D, you will always get a "trivial" entropy contribution
of -2 kT log(r), which will eventually make all curves tend downwards.

Sounds like it, but there's no way anyone on this list will know that unless you 
describe your system in greater detail - how you generated the starting 
configurations, how many windows you used and what distances that corresponds 
to, the pull parameters you've specified in your .mdp file, and anything else 
that might be pertinent.
