I am kinda confused here. Lets say I have mixture of two molecules, one with
more than one atoms and second one is just simple one atom molecule, call it
as CG1.

Then I wish to coarse-grain multi-atom molecule to its COM site, call it as
CG2 and now determine what is the effective CG potentials between CG2-CG2,
CG1-CG2, I dont have to worry about CG1-CG1 which I know already.

The trajectory contains the force information due to all possible
interactions. So to determine CG2-CG2, do I have to eliminate any
interaction between CG2-CG1, and same for CG1-CG2 i.e. eliminate
CG2-CG2,CG1-CG1. Or FM takes of these by itself. That is to say when
computing CG2-CG2 it only considers force acting on CG2 site only because of
CG2-CG2 interaction and not any other.

Yeah, it would be great if you could forward me the paper you submitted in
regard to this topic.

thanks
