In order to evaluate the performance of the pairwise electrostatic |
| 726 |
|
summation methods for Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, the energy |
| 727 |
|
differences between configurations were compared to the values |
| 757 |
|
function.\cite{Adams79,Steinbach94,Leach01} However, we do not see |
| 758 |
|
significant improvement using the group-switched cutoff because the |
| 759 |
|
salt and salt solution systems contain non-neutral groups. Section |

For the {\sc sp} method, inclusion of electrostatic damping improves |
| 780 |
|
systems; although it does provide results that are an improvement over |
| 781 |
|
those from an unmodified cutoff. |

Evaluation of pairwise methods for use in Molecular Dynamics |
| 786 |
|
simulations requires consideration of effects on the forces and |
| 856 |
|
molecular bodies. Therefore it is not surprising that reaction field |
| 857 |
|
performs best of all of the methods on molecular torques. |

It is clearly important that a new electrostatic method can reproduce |
| 862 |
|
the magnitudes of the force and torque vectors obtained via the Ewald |
| 906 |
|
particles in all seven systems, while torque vectors are only |
| 907 |
|
available for neutral molecular groups. Damping is more beneficial to |
| 908 |
|
charged bodies, and this observation is investigated further in |
| 909 |

section \ref{SystemResults}. |

Although not discussed previously, group based cutoffs can be applied |
| 912 |
|
to both the {\sc sp} and {\sc sf} methods. The group-based cutoffs |

observations, empirical damping up to 0.2\AA$^{-1}$ is beneficial, |
| 985 |

but damping may be unnecessary when using the {\sc sf} method. |

The water results parallel the combined results seen in sections |

\ref{sec:EnergyResults} through \ref{sec:FTDirResults}. There is good |

agreement with {\sc spme} in both energetic and dynamic behavior when |

using the {\sc sf} method with and without damping. The {\sc sp} |

method does well with an $\alpha$ around 0.2\AA$^{-1}$, particularly |

The pure cutoff ({\sc pc}) method performs poorly, again mirroring the |

observations from the combined results. In contrast to these results, however, the use of a switching function and group |
| 1129 |

based cutoffs greatly improves the results for these neutral water |

molecules. The group switched cutoff ({\sc gsc}) does not mimic the |
| 1131 |

energetics of {\sc spme} as well as the {\sc sp} (with moderate |
| 1132 |
> |
damping) and {\sc sf} methods, but the dynamics are quite good. The |
| 1133 |
> |
switching functions correct discontinuities in the potential and |
| 1134 |

forces, leading to these improved results. Such improvements with the |
| 1135 |

use of a switching function have been recognized in previous |

studies,\cite{Andrea83,Steinbach94} and this proves to be a useful |

tactic for stably incorporating local area electrostatic effects. |

|
| 1139 |

The reaction field ({\sc rf}) method simply extends upon the results |
| 1140 |
> |
observed in the {\sc gsc} case. Both methods are similar in form |
| 1141 |
> |
(i.e. neutral groups, switching function), but {\sc rf} incorporates |
| 1142 |
> |
an added effect from the external dielectric. This similarity |
| 1143 |
> |
translates into the same good dynamic results and improved energetic |
| 1144 |
> |
agreement with {\sc spme}. Though this agreement is not to the level |
| 1145 |

of the moderately damped {\sc sp} and {\sc sf} methods, these results |
| 1146 |

show how incorporating some implicit properties of the surroundings |

(i.e. $\epsilon_\textrm{S}$) can improve the solvent depiction. |
| 1148 |

|
| 1149 |

As a final note for the liquid water system, use of group cutoffs and a |
| 1150 |
> |
switching function leads to noticeable improvements in the {\sc sp} |
| 1151 |
> |
and {\sc sf} methods, primarily in directionality of the force and |
| 1152 |

torque vectors (table \ref{tab:spceAng}). The {\sc sp} method shows |
| 1153 |

significant narrowing of the angle distribution when using little to |
| 1154 |
> |
no damping and only modest improvement for the recommended conditions |
| 1155 |

($\alpha = 0.2$\AA$^{-1}$ and $R_\textrm{c}~\geqslant~12$\AA). The |
| 1156 |

{\sc sf} method shows modest narrowing across all damping and cutoff |
| 1157 |

ranges of interest. When overdamping these methods, group cutoffs and |

the switching function do not improve the force and torque |

directionalities. |

Highly ordered systems are a difficult test for the pairwise methods |

The dynamics of this crystalline system (both in magnitude and |

It is also worth noting that {\sc rf} exhibits improved energy gap |

that the ice I$_\textrm{c}$ crystal is ordered such that the net |

The molten NaCl system shows more sensitivity to the electrostatic |
| 1372 |
> |
damping than the water systems. The most noticeable point is that the |
| 1373 |
> |
undamped {\sc sf} method does very well at replicating the {\sc spme} |
| 1374 |
> |
configurational energy differences and forces. Light damping appears |
| 1375 |
> |
to minimally improve the dynamics, but this comes with a deterioration |
| 1376 |
> |
of the energy gap results. In contrast, this light damping improves |
| 1377 |
> |
the {\sc sp} energy gaps and forces. Moderate and heavy electrostatic |
| 1378 |
> |
damping reduce the agreement with {\sc spme} for both methods. From |
| 1379 |
> |
these observations, the undamped {\sc sf} method is the best choice |
| 1380 |
> |
for disordered systems of charges. |

The crystalline NaCl system is the most challenging test case for the |
| 1465 |
+ |
pairwise summation methods, as evidenced by the results in tables |
| 1466 |
+ |
\ref{tab:salt} and \ref{tab:saltAng}. The undamped and weakly damped |
| 1467 |
+ |
{\sc sf} methods seem to be the best choices. These methods match well |
| 1468 |
+ |
with {\sc spme} across the energy gap, force magnitude, and force |
| 1469 |
+ |
directionality tests. The {\sc sp} method struggles in all cases, |
| 1470 |
+ |
with the exception of good dynamics reproduction when using weak |
| 1471 |
+ |
electrostatic damping with a large cutoff radius. |
| 1472 |
+ |
|
| 1473 |
+ |
The moderate electrostatic damping case is not as good as we would |
| 1474 |
+ |
expect given the long-time dynamics results observed for this system |
| 1475 |
+ |
(see section \ref{sec:LongTimeDynamics}). Since the data tabulated in |
| 1476 |
+ |
tables \ref{tab:salt} and \ref{tab:saltAng} are a test of |
| 1477 |
+ |
instantaneous dynamics, this indicates that good long-time dynamics |
| 1478 |
+ |
comes in part at the expense of short-time dynamics. |

In an effort to bridge the charged atomic and neutral molecular |
| 1483 |
+ |
systems, Na$^+$ and Cl$^-$ ion charge defects were incorporated into |
| 1484 |
+ |
the liquid water system. This low ionic strength system consists of 4 |
| 1485 |
+ |
ions in the 1000 SPC/E water solvent ($\approx$0.11 M). The results |
| 1486 |
+ |
for the energy gap comparisons and the force and torque vector |
| 1487 |
+ |
magnitude comparisons are shown in table \ref{tab:solnWeak}. The |
| 1488 |
+ |
force and torque vector directionality results are displayed |
| 1489 |
+ |
separately in table \ref{tab:solnWeakAng}, where the effect of |
| 1490 |
+ |
group-based cutoffs and switching functions on the {\sc sp} and {\sc |
| 1491 |
+ |
sf} potentials are investigated. |

| 1593 |
+ |
{\sc sf} methods are not significantly affected by the inclusion of a |
| 1594 |
+ |
few ions. The aspect of cutoff sphere neutralization aids in the |
| 1595 |
+ |
smooth incorporation of these ions; thus, all of the observations |
| 1596 |
+ |
regarding these methods carry over from section |
| 1597 |
+ |
\ref{sec:WaterResults}. The differences between these systems are more |
| 1598 |
+ |
visible for the {\sc rf} method. Though good force agreement is still |
| 1599 |
+ |
maintained, the energy gaps show a significant increase in the scatter |
| 1600 |
+ |
of the data. |

The bridging of the charged atomic and neutral molecular systems was |
| 1605 |
+ |
further developed by considering a high ionic strength system |
| 1606 |
+ |
consisting of 40 ions in the 1000 SPC/E water solvent ($\approx$1.1 |
| 1607 |
+ |
M). The results for the energy gap comparisons and the force and |
| 1608 |
+ |
torque vector magnitude comparisons are shown in table |
| 1609 |
+ |
\ref{tab:solnStr}. The force and torque vector directionality |
| 1610 |

results are displayed separately in table \ref{tab:solnStrAng}, where |

the effect of group-based cutoffs and switching functions on the {\sc |

The {\sc rf} method struggles with the jump in ionic strength. The |
| 1713 |
+ |
configuration energy differences degrade to unusable levels while the |
| 1714 |
+ |
forces and torques show a more modest reduction in the agreement with |
| 1715 |
+ |
{\sc spme}. The {\sc rf} method was designed for homogeneous systems, |
| 1716 |
+ |
and this attribute is apparent in these results. |
| 1717 |
+ |
|
| 1718 |
+ |
The {\sc sp} and {\sc sf} methods require larger cutoffs to maintain |
| 1719 |
+ |
their agreement with {\sc spme}. With these results, we still |
| 1720 |
+ |
recommend undamped to moderate damping for the {\sc sf} method and |
| 1721 |
+ |
moderate damping for the {\sc sp} method, both with cutoffs greater |

than 12\AA. |

This system does not appear to show any significant deviations from |
| 1835 |
+ |
the previously observed results. The {\sc sp} and {\sc sf} methods |
| 1836 |
+ |
have aggrements similar to those observed in section |
| 1837 |
+ |
\ref{sec:WaterResults}. The only significant difference is the |
| 1838 |
+ |
improvement in the configuration energy differences for the {\sc rf} |
| 1839 |
+ |
method. This is surprising in that we are introducing an inhomogeneity |
| 1840 |
+ |
to the system; however, this inhomogeneity is charge-neutral and does |
| 1841 |
+ |
not result in charged cutoff spheres. The charge-neutrality of the |
| 1842 |
+ |
cutoff spheres, which the {\sc sp} and {\sc sf} methods explicitly |
| 1843 |
+ |
enforce, seems to play a greater role in the stability of the {\sc rf} |

method than the required homogeneity of the environment. |

\section{Synopsis of the Pairwise Method Evaluation}\label{sec:PairwiseSynopsis} |
| 1963 |
|
|
| 1964 |
+ |
The above investigation of pairwise electrostatic summation techniques |
| 1965 |
+ |
shows that there are viable and computationally efficient alternatives |
| 1966 |
+ |
to the Ewald summation. These methods are derived from the damped and |
| 1967 |
+ |
cutoff-neutralized Coulombic sum originally proposed by Wolf |
| 1968 |
+ |
\textit{et al.}\cite{Wolf99} In particular, the {\sc sf} |
| 1969 |
+ |
method, reformulated above as eqs. (\ref{eq:DSFPot}) and |
| 1970 |
+ |
(\ref{eq:DSFForces}), shows a remarkable ability to reproduce the |
| 1971 |
+ |
energetic and dynamic characteristics exhibited by simulations |
| 1972 |
+ |
employing lattice summation techniques. The cumulative energy |
| 1973 |
+ |
difference results showed the undamped {\sc sf} and moderately damped |
| 1974 |
+ |
{\sc sp} methods produced results nearly identical to {\sc spme}. |
| 1975 |
+ |
Similarly for the dynamic features, the undamped or moderately damped |
| 1976 |
+ |
{\sc sf} and moderately damped {\sc sp} methods produce force and |
| 1977 |
+ |
torque vector magnitude and directions very similar to the expected |
| 1978 |
+ |
values. These results translate into long-time dynamic behavior |
| 1979 |
+ |
equivalent to that produced in simulations using {\sc spme}. |
| 1980 |
+ |
|
| 1981 |
+ |
As in all purely-pairwise cutoff methods, these methods are expected |
| 1982 |
+ |
to scale approximately {\it linearly} with system size, and they are |
| 1983 |
+ |
easily parallelizable. This should result in substantial reductions |
| 1984 |
+ |
in the computational cost of performing large simulations. |
| 1985 |
+ |
|
| 1986 |
+ |
Aside from the computational cost benefit, these techniques have |
| 1987 |
+ |
applicability in situations where the use of the Ewald sum can prove |
| 1988 |
+ |
problematic. Of greatest interest is their potential use in |
| 1989 |
+ |
interfacial systems, where the unmodified lattice sum techniques |
| 1990 |
+ |
artificially accentuate the periodicity of the system in an |
| 1991 |
+ |
undesirable manner. There have been alterations to the standard Ewald |
| 1992 |
+ |
techniques, via corrections and reformulations, to compensate for |
| 1993 |
+ |
these systems; but the pairwise techniques discussed here require no |
| 1994 |
+ |
modifications, making them natural tools to tackle these problems. |
| 1995 |
+ |
Additionally, this transferability gives them benefits over other |
| 1996 |
+ |
pairwise methods, like reaction field, because estimations of physical |
| 1997 |
+ |
properties (e.g. the dielectric constant) are unnecessary. |
| 1998 |
+ |
|
| 1999 |
+ |
If a researcher is using Monte Carlo simulations of large chemical |
| 2000 |
+ |
systems containing point charges, most structural features will be |
| 2001 |
+ |
accurately captured using the undamped {\sc sf} method or the {\sc sp} |
| 2002 |
+ |
method with an electrostatic damping of 0.2\AA$^{-1}$. These methods |
| 2003 |
+ |
would also be appropriate for molecular dynamics simulations where the |
| 2004 |
+ |
data of interest is either structural or short-time dynamical |
| 2005 |
+ |
quantities. For long-time dynamics and collective motions, the safest |
| 2006 |
+ |
pairwise method we have evaluated is the {\sc sf} method with an |
| 2007 |
+ |
electrostatic damping between 0.2 and 0.25\AA$^{-1}$. |
| 2008 |
+ |
|
| 2009 |
+ |
We are not suggesting that there is any flaw with the Ewald sum; in |
| 2010 |
+ |
fact, it is the standard by which these simple pairwise sums have been |
| 2011 |
+ |
judged. However, these results do suggest that in the typical |
| 2012 |
+ |
simulations performed today, the Ewald summation may no longer be |
| 2013 |
+ |
required to obtain the level of accuracy most researchers have come to |
| 2014 |
+ |
expect. |
