[gmx-users] Coul-LR

[pascal.baillod at epfl.ch]

Hi everybody!

Some more electrostatic questions, if I may..

1) I think I understood the meaning of the coul-LR term now, but would like to
be sure.. In PME, it would be the (short range) real sum term computed between
rlist and rcoul, whereas interactions after rcoul would be computed in
reciprocal space, in a term that is only computed for the entire system (coul.
recipr.). Therefore it is not possible to get coul. recipr. for part of the system..

2) Would coul-LR be the long range "interaction to dielectric x environment"
contribution, in the reaction field method? 

Thank you very much for your help!!

Pascal
