This results from the method an autocorrelation function is averaged. For an average that is unbiased you need the same number of samples for every time step. You achieve this by shifting the choice of the value for t=0 through the trajectory. The maximal length of the average you can achieve with this is exactly half the simulation time. /Flo > > Thomas > > > -- > gmx-users mailing list gmx-users@gromacs.org > http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users > Please search the archive at > http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting! > Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.
