Could you please tell me which FF should I use? What you're citing is a custom model. You can write the force field files very easily. I see what you're trying to do now, but you should be clear that N2 is not a negatively charged molecule simply because the N atoms (in this representation) have partial negative charges. The virtual site balances it out so that electrostatic properties are better represented. The virtual site you need to create is a simple one, placed at the center of the N-N bond, so this is virtual_sites2 with an "a" value of 0.5. -Justin Thank you very much I appreciate your support. http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/0965-0393/24/4/045002/meta On Mon, Jul 17, 2017 at 8:40 AM, Justin Lemkul wrote: On 7/16/17 9:20 PM, Ali Ahmed wrote: Hello GROMACS users, This is Ali, I'm new to Gromacs and doing MD simulation of nitrogen at super critical point.The structure I use is different from regular nitrogen (N-N).

[gmx-users] nitrogen itp file with virtual site
Hello GROMACS users, This is Ali, I'm new to Gromacs and doing MD simulation of nitrogen at super critical point.The structure I use is different from regular nitrogen (N-N). As you know N atom has a negative charge which means the nitrogen molecule will be negatively charged, therefore I need to use massless and charged virtual site to equilibrate the molecule. I have looked on the tutorial about CO2 to produce the XXX.itp but didnot work with me. Could anyone have done it before tell me how to do it ? Here are the parameters: N :mass =14.0067, epsilon =(0.3026 KJ/mol), sigma =(0.332 nm), Charge =(-0.482 e). XX (massless, charged particle ):mass =0, epsilon=0, sigma=0 Charge= 0.964 e.
