then -
PME: treament of long range electrostatic interactions in implicit solvent?
PBC: simulate infinite dilution again in implicit solvent?
I really do not see the point!
I have for instance systems with ions in implicit solvent.
Since ions have long range electrostatic interactions, you need
PME (and PBC).
Then of course. I actually thought that might be your case. Is it
actually worth? Are they behaving reasonably, not sticking to anything
they meet? How did you parameterize these funny ones?
Because it is implicit solvent you need to use the appropriate epsilon_r.
I don't see what PBC has to do with infinite dilution.
That is the original idea of using PBC: simulate a molecule in a box of
solvent that would not have boundaries=infinite dilution. The concept has
derived towards "periodic systems" but it is not supposed to be. This is
why I generally do not use PME.
