Dear Gromacs Users,
I run an MD simulation of a pure solvent and found out that the density
of the solvent deviated a little bit from the actual experimental data.
MD density is 880g/ml and the experimental data is 866g/ml. Is this
reasonable for toluene solvent molecules.
I have a hard time of lowering the density to the experimental value. I
am using ff53a6 gromos force field with rlist=rvwd=rcoulomb=0.9nm.
Is there any advice on this or it is OK.
I'd say a 1.6% difference is quite outstanding. If you're using the standard
parameters for this force field (i.e., Phe side chain), then that's probably the
best you can do, since that's how the force field was derived in the first place.

Thank you
