Hi,
Am Anik Sen, using gromacs 3.3.2 version. I have a very simple question to ask,

In the mdp file, like the emmod.mdp or run.mdp needed for a MD run there are three factors namely,rlist, rcoulomb and rvdw. 1. Is there any minimum value for these three below which the results will be absurd for any system, or we can use any value for these?
2. For a system we are using 0.1. Is this a right one or not?

You should be attempting to replicate either the parameter regime under which your force field was developed, or a similar set under which it has been shown to produce results that agree with real observations. Pulling numbers out of the air is not appropriate.

And since this is apparently new work, you should upgrade to a more modern GROMACS for much better performance, more useful resources and hopefully fewer bugs!

Mark
