Particle-Mesh Ewald
Particle-Mesh Ewald
ewald-alpha
Type: Double Default: 0.545 Definition: Sets the value of the Ewald coefficient, which controls the width of the Gaussian screening charges during particle mesh Ewald summation for multipole electrostatics. In the absence of the ewald-alpha keyword, the default value is 0.545, which is appropriate for most applications.
pme-grid-x
Type: Integer Default: NONE Definition: Specifies the PME grid dimension along the x-axis and takes precedence over the pme-grid keyword.
pme-grid-y
Type: Integer Default: NONE Definition: Specifies the PME grid dimension along the y-axis and takes precedence over the pme-grid keyword.
pme-grid-z
Type: Integer Default: NONE Definition: Specifies the PME grid dimension along the z-axis and takes precedence over the pme-grid keyword.
pme-grid
Type: Integer Default: NONE Definition: [3 integers] Sets the dimensions of the reciprocal space grid used during particle mesh Ewald summation for electrostatics. The three modifiers give the size along the X-, Y- and Z- axes, respectively. If either the Y- or Z-axis dimensions are omitted, then they are set equal to the X-axis dimension. The default in the absence of the pme-grid keyword is to set the grid size along each axis to the smallest value that can be factored by 2, 3, 4 and/or 5 and is at least as large as 1.2 times the axis length in Angstroms. The value 1.2 can be changed using the pme-mesh-density property.
