Hi Maryam Kowsar,
I have implemented external magnetic field to GROMACS and tested it. The
code ran well and the test result is consistent with experiment for simple
case (say Na+ in vacuum and without t_coupling). I may guest why your code
got the error. But I am sorry that I can not share my code to anyone now
(but I will do share it to this forum in near future).
However, there is an important issue that MD simulation with t_coupling
always does re-scale velocity of all atoms to keep the given temperature
and it strongly effect on the Lorentz Force of the external magnetic
field. Otherwise, If the t_coupling is not applied, the system temperature
will increase forever. Therefore, I wonder whether we really can estimate
effect of the magnetic field on protein (or other target) in simulation?
