This force field exists to do very simple models, mostly for comparison with older simulations or theory. <p> </p> </ul> <b>Lennard-Jonesium in Towhee</b> <ul> The official force field name for Lennard-Jonesium in Towhee is 'LJium'. Here I list all of the Lennard-Jones atom names currently in the towhee_ff_LJium file, along with a brief description (although the meaning of the atom names should be obvious). Please note that the capitalization and spacing pattern is important and must be followed exactly as listed here. <ul> <li><b>'lj1.0'</b> : a Lennard-Jones sphere with a 1.0 diameter and an epsilon of 1 K. </ul> </ul> <b>Coulombic interactions</b> <ul> It is possible to combine the Lennard-Jones potential with point charges. Simply assign the point charges to the atoms as you see fit. </ul> <b>Improper torsions</b> <ul> There are no improper torsions set up specifically for Lennard-Jones spheres. </ul> <b>Proteins</b> <ul> There are no features to build proteins out of Lennard-Jones spheres. </ul> <a href="../towhee_capabilities.html">Return to the Towhee Capabilities web page</a> <p> </p> </td> </tr> </table> <hr width="715" align="left"> <i><font size="2">Send comments to:</font></i> <font size="2"> <a href="mailto:marcus_martin@users.sourceforge.net">Marcus G.
