[gmx-users] dipole moment

Basically I want to calculate the stretching vibration of the bond by
fourier transfrom of dipole momenet autocorrelation fucntion or velocity
autocorrelation function.

Before going for vibration I wanted to check the fluctuation of dipole
moment along the simulation.


Can I calculate the velocity autocorrelation function for a bond.
