[gmx-users] VDW radii of Br and K+

[nishap.patel at utoronto.ca]

Hello,

     I converted a .tpr file for Bromine ion and Potassium ion using  
-mead option and editconf. It gives out the Van der Waals radius of  
the atom, but I don't understand why i got ~2.46A for Potassium and  
~2.31A for Bromide. Isn't the bromide ion bigger than Potassium? And I  
used genion to add both the atoms.

Thanks.
