We investigate pairwise electrostatic interaction methods and show |

techniques. Comparisons were performed with this and other pairwise |
61 |

methods against the smooth particle mesh Ewald ({\sc spme}) summation |
62 |

to see how well they reproduce the energetics and dynamics of a |

Several studies have recognized that the inherent periodicity in the |

Ewald sum can also have an effect on three-dimensional |

We evaluated the pairwise methods (outlined in section |

salt and salt solution systems contain non-neutral groups. Interested |

For the {\sc sp} method, inclusion of electrostatic damping improves |

Although not discussed previously, group based cutoffs can be applied |

to both the {\sc sp} and {\sc sf} methods. The group-based cutoffs |
