Hi Swarnendu,

grompp will return errer unless rlist=rcoulomb=rvdw=0, so you should stick to it.

Cheers,

Hello everybody,

I want to use the no cut-off option in gromacs for the electrostatic interactions. In manual it says for this I need to define: pbc=no; nstlist=0; ns-type=simple and rlist=rcoulomb=rvdw=0 in the .mdp file.

My questions are:

1. If I choose rcoulomb=0 and rlist=rvdw=2.0 is that a problem? Do you always recommend to use rlist=rcoulomb=rvdw=0 for no cut-off option?

2. How should I choose the table-extension parameter now? Before, with pbc=xyz (with cut-off) I used table-extension=rvdw+1/2*length of the longest diagonal of the box (approximately). I am also using a tabulated potential.

Since there is effectively no box once pbc=no, your tables need only be as long as the longest possible interaction, plus some margin for when the structure rearranges.
