I have a question about simulating metal ions in aqueous solution at an infinite diluition: say I have a metal ion (such as Ca2+ or Mg2+) and about a thousand water molecules. I have to compensate the non zero charge of the system with negative ions? As I can understand the use of a reaction field can account for this fact and exist water models with force fields parametrized ad-hoc (J. Chem. Phys. 108,10220 (1998)). How about methods like Ewald or PME if I have a nonzero total charge? And if I need not use use long range electrostatics at all?
