There's nothing to add to a perfect answer! Indeed 'p' is for 'polarizable'
and should be used with a polarizable water model (PW) and not with the
normal model (W). Also, Martini is not Gromacs, so information about the
force field should not be expected in the Gromacs manual, but can be found
in the papers describing Martini and on cgmartini.nl.

Please also note that I'm not an expert on the force field and its
parameterization. I wouldn't want my answers on that being considered
definite :)

Cheers,

Tsjerk
