Hi

I have three questions:


1.)

If you create a .rtp file in your force field folder (I use charmm27) you
have a block [ dihedrals ] with the structure

[ dihedrals ]


atom1    atom2    atom3    atom4    phi0    cp      mult


What is cp and what is mult?


Force constant (I believe) and multiplicity.


2.)

In the [ impropers ] block you have

[ impropers ]


atom1      atom2      atom3      atom4     q0     cq

What is q0 and cq?


Equilibrium angle and force constant.

3.) Out of a supporting information of a paper I have the information
"improper dihedral angles" I have the four atoms and force constants and
equilibrium angles. What is the syntax for thin in my .rtp file? Do I use [
dihedrals ] or [ impropers ] block or how do I write my Information in
gromacs in my rtp. file?



In an .rtp file, you use [dihedrals] for dihedrals and [impropers] for improper dihedrals - in ffbonded.itp you would specify parameters for the impropers within a [dihedraltypes] block and specifying the correct function type for the interaction.
