Hi,

Since in graphene, C is sp2 hybridized with covalent radius as 0.073 nm, how
come C-C bond length =0.142 nm which is less that twice the covalent radius,
does this mean 2 C's overlap (which is unphysical). The source of my data is
wikipedia.

Also, there is no bare C in GROMOS96 53a6 ff, which has LJ parameters for a
sp2 C, though I could find CH0, which is for sp3 C. Can somebody please
suggest from where should I get LJ parameters for sp2 C? From the tutorials
I found that bare C is used in topologies, which according to my
calculations has VdW radius = 0.179 nm (0.5*(C12/C6)^(1/6)).
