Hi Justin,

Wikipedia says: "sigma is the finite distance at which the inter-particle
potential is zero"

But if I want to simulate particles with a certain diameter, where can I set
the diameter in Gromcas?.
For example, a sphere with a diameter of 5 angstroms, would then sigma 5
angstroms?

Best,
grita
