[gmx-users] Surface Tension: equation and tail corrections?

Hello GROMACS users,
I am using gromacs 2018.1
The manual and the gmx energy help page does not explicitly explain how the
"(surface tension) x (surface number)" is calculated. I assume it is
equation 3.69:
L_{z} ( P_{zz}(t) - ( 0.5*P_{xx}(t) + 0.5*P_{yy}(t) ) )
Has anyone implemented a tool to compute analytical tail corrections for
the surface tension of a system with a slab structure? Assuming the there
are no excluded pairs beyond the cutoff, it seems like you can calculate
these corrections from "gmx density" number-density profiles and topology
information on the dispersive LJ term of all unique atomtypes.
Best,
Eric
