Ok,
So since there are no LJ on H in SPC/E, should we eliminate the line the
line:
Xe H 1 1.992e-03 2.775e-06
yes
try it in vacuum first.
to be more consistent???

Using GROMACS, I applied an umbrella potential to the two atoms
moved along a distance of 10 Å with a force constant k = 5000 kJ
mol−1 nm−2 for 2 ps time steps for 1500000 steps, total simulation
time 3 ns. My resulting PMF has a first minima around 2.5
angstroms, which is at too short a distance to be correct... I feel
like some repulsive parameter is either incorrect or left out, but
for all my troubleshooting, I cannot find out what it is. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I am providing my
topology information below:
*Xe.itp*
;name at. no. mass charge ptype c6 c12
Xe 54 131.293 0.000 A 2.815e-02 1.110e-04
#Xenon LJ parameters from sigma = 0.3975 nm and epsilon =
2.9643*10^-24 KJ
./sigeps -c6 2.815e-02 -cn 1.110e-04
c6 = 2.81500e-02, c12 = 1.11000e-04
sigma = 0.39747, epsilon = 1.78474
Van der Waals minimum at 0.446148, V = -1.78474
You're right. How about combination rules? The parameters below are
not consistent with SPC/E which has no LJ on H.

online, but gromacs has the H LJ set to zero - wondering if this is
a problem?
