Dear all
I want to use Buckingham interactions. And I read the manual, but I still have some questions for asking: 1 ) I need to write the BN Buckingham interactions in the format of GMX. see the following:
       Buckingham    a(ev)  b(nm)  C(ev nm^6)
        B-B                 6260 0.1 0
        B-N 33 0.7 0
        N-N 4300 0.12 0

where shall I put the [defaults] lines, could I put these in mydefined.itp file?

You can't put these in a molecule .itp file. These lines go in the forcefield.itp file that is #included at the beginning of normal .top files. There can only be one [defaults] in your whole .top, including the #included files.


           [ defaults ]
 ; nbfunc   comb-rule   gen-pairs  fudgeLJ  fudgeQQ
     2        1           no         1.0      1.0

2) There are three parameters for Buckingham interactions, can I write as in the following way?

         [ atomtypes ]
;type    mass    charge   ptype    a          b      C6
 B      30.07     1.15         A ?? ?? ??
 N      14.01    -1.15        A  ?? ?? ??


Sure. What's the alternative?

3) The given Buckingham interaction parameter of B-N may not obey any combine rules provided in GMX, what shall I do?

You need to provide suitable [nonbond_params] lines. See manual section 5.3.2

I will be appreciate it if you can give me some suggestions!
