Hi Mark,

My *.mdp file:
cpp                 =  /lib/cpp
integrator          =  md
;constraints         =  h-bonds
dt                  =  0.001
nsteps              =  5000000
nstcomm             =  1
nstxout             =  1000
nstvout             =  1000
nstxtcout           =  100
nstlog              =  1000
nstenergy           =  100
nstlist             =  10
pbc                 =  xyz
ns_type             =  grid
rlist               =  1.0
rvdw                =  1.0
rcoulomb            =  1.0
coulombtype         =  pme    
fourierspacing      =  0.12
pme_order           =  4
energygrps          =  SOL 1CeO 2CeO 3CeO 4CeO 
Tcoupl              =  berendsen
tc-grps             =  system 
ref_t               =   298 
tau_t               =   0.1
pcoupl              =  berendsen
tau_p               =  10.0
compressibility     =  4.5e-5
ref_p               =  1.0
gen_vel             =  no

About clarifying "I have minimized four nanoparticle (with 0.5 nm of distance)".
I build my system inseting four nanoparticles into a box with 7,000 water molecules.
The initial distance between the nanoparticles are 0.5 nm. After 5 ns of simulation
(using the *.mdp file above), this distance is 0.3 nm, sufficiently for interactions
between the nanoparticles. However, these interactions (Coulomb and LJ) are zero.
On the other hand, there are interactions between nanoparticle-water and 
nanoparticle intramolecular. 

I hope that this can help.

Thanks so much,
Osmair
