[gmx-users] Gromacs simulation with PEG

[Patrick Fuchs]

FYI, starting from GROMOS 53a6 parameters, we have refined them against 
the free energy of solvation of dimethoxyethane in water (and 
cyclohexane) (DOI: 10.1021/ct300245h). These new parameters are now part 
of the new 2016H66 force field (DOI: 10.1021/acs.jctc.6b00187).
Best,

Patrick
