Why are you creating two dummy atoms? Your earlier post implied two
negatively charged N atoms and a single (axial) positively-charged
massless dummy atom would be an adequate model. The two N atoms have
a bond or constraint between them, and the dummy atom is a type 2
virtual site half-way between them. IIRC this should be the same for
linear rigid CO2, except that there the central particle has mass
and charge.<br>

Hi,
I'm getting better to use Gromacs owing to many posts on this sites :) .
I have several questions about adding the counter-ions.
My system has a number of N2 molecules which has charge,
-0.40484(for single N) X 2.
Thus, I have to add some counter-ions to make the system neutral.
However, because I'm newbie on Gromacs, I thought of several
clumsy ways myself.
#1. Add virtual sites (virtual atoms) which has counter-ions like below.
[ atomtypes ]
; name mass charge ptype sigma epsilon
DUM 0 0.80968 V 0.0 0.0
I set the coordinates of each virtual DUM atoms to the center of
N2 molecules.
#2. using genion in Gromacs.
But, I have no idea on this. What molecules do I have to designate
to charge plus ion using genion ??
I typed below line.
genion -s md_0_1.tpr -n index.ndx -o ton_genion.pdb -g
md_0_1_genion.log -p topol_genion.top -np 322 -pname dum -pq 0.80968
and selected N2 molecules which is diffusing particle.
It results that the name of half of N2 molecules is changed as
DUM. (maybe the system become neutral)
The number of N2 molecules should be fixed.
Do I have additional N2 molecule for charging using genion?? Then,
what are the initial coordinates???
please help me....
any advises would be helpful.
</pre>
<tt> How can I do that??? </tt><tt>I see no reason why you

<pre style="margin:0em">-Justin
I made linear rigid model (CO2) by introducing virtual interaction. However, I
have troubles in modelling N2 molecules.
I want to model N2 with quadrupole moment according to the paper (Adsorption
(2007) 13: 469-476).
In the paper, the charge N2 model (originally developed by Murthy et al. (1980)
can be described as follows.
N (-0.40484), Dummy (N2, +0.80968).

<tt>Sounds like virtual site type 2 is perfect - and didn't
