What is cth stand for, in the parameters file. It is not written in the latest manual 4.5.6. Is kd the force constant for dihedral angles??

Hi,

Please use a descriptive subject. Your email is important to you, but that
doesn't help anybody choose whether they might be able to help. :-)

Since you are doing new work, you should very likely be using a more recent
version of Gromacs, to get faster performance and generally fewer bugs.

See the appropriate tables in manual sections in chapter 5 and links
therefrom; more recent Gromacs versions have better documentation here, too.

I want to know what these terms represent not the value.
