Hi All,
As Prof. David van der Spoel referred in the last communication about how the 
dihedral angle autocorrelation function is calculated via the program g_chi, I 
have a query regarding the differences that I found between the function 
mentioned in the article (Biophys. J. 72 pp. 2032-2041 (1997)) and the function 
used by the program g_chi.
According to the article, the dihedral angle autocorrelation function is 
defined as:
C(t) = <cos[theta(tau)-theta(tau+t)]> ..... (Eq. 1 of the article)

However, the g_chi program uses the function:
C(t) = <cos(theta(tau)) cos(theta(tau+t)) > ..... (Eq. 2)
So, apparently the g_chi program uses a different function. Am I correct? Is 
there a way around it? I mean is there a way to estimate C(t) using the 
function given in the article (Eq. 1)?
ThanksAtanu
