\section{Introduction} |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
Over the past several years, there has been increased interest in |
| 49 |
pairwise methods for correcting electrostatic interaction in computer |
| 50 |
simulations of condensed molecular |
| 51 |
systems.\cite{Wolf99,Zahn02,Kast03,Fennell06} |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
\section{Shifted Force Pairwise Electrostatic Correction} |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
In our previous look at pairwise electrostatic correction methods, we |
| 56 |
described the undamped and damped shifted potential {\sc sp} and |
| 57 |
shifted force {\sc sf} techniques.\cite{Fennell06} These techniques |
| 58 |
were developed from the observations and efforts of Wolf {\it et al.} |
| 59 |
and their work towards an $\mathcal{O}(N)$ Coulombic sum.\cite{Wolf99} |
| 60 |
The potential for the damped form of the {\sc sp} method is given by |
| 61 |
\begin{equation} |
| 62 |
V_{\textrm{DSP}}(r) = q_iq_j\left(\frac{\textrm{erfc}\left(\alpha r\right)}{r} |
| 63 |
- \frac{\textrm{erfc}\left(\alpha R_\textrm{c}\right)}{R_\textrm{c}}\right) |
| 64 |
\quad r\leqslant R_\textrm{c}, |
| 65 |
\label{eq:DSPPot} |
| 66 |
\end{equation} |
| 67 |
while the damped form of the {\sc sf} method is given by |
| 68 |
\begin{equation} |
| 69 |
\begin{split} |
| 70 |
V_\mathrm{DSF}(r) = q_iq_j\Biggr{[}& |
| 71 |
\frac{\mathrm{erfc}\left(\alpha r\right)}{r} |
| 72 |
- \frac{\mathrm{erfc}\left(\alpha R_\mathrm{c}\right)}{R_\mathrm{c}} \\ |
| 73 |
&+ \left(\frac{\mathrm{erfc}\left(\alpha R_\mathrm{c}\right)}{R_\mathrm{c}^2} |
| 74 |
+ \frac{2\alpha}{\pi^{1/2}} |
| 75 |
\frac{\exp\left(-\alpha^2R_\mathrm{c}^2\right)}{R_\mathrm{c}} |
| 76 |
\right)\left(r-R_\mathrm{c}\right)\ \Biggr{]} |
| 77 |
\quad r\leqslant R_\textrm{c}. |
| 78 |
\label{eq:DSFPot} |
| 79 |
\end{split} |
| 80 |
\end{equation} |
| 81 |
Overall, the damped {\sc sf} method is considered an improvement over |
| 82 |
the {\sc sp} method because there is no discontinuity in the forces as |
| 83 |
particles move out of the cutoff radius ($R_\textrm{c}$). This is |
| 84 |
accomplished by shifting the forces (and potential) to zero at |
| 85 |
$R_\textrm{c}$. This is analogous to neutralizing the charge and the |
| 86 |
force effect of the charges within $R_\textrm{c}$. |
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
As we mentioned in the previous study, to complete the charge |
| 89 |
neutralization procedure, a self-neutralization term needs to be |
| 90 |
included in the potential. This term exists outside the pair-loop, and |
| 91 |
can be thought of as a charge opposite in sign and equal in magnitude |
| 92 |
to the central particle, spread out over the entire cutoff |
| 93 |
sphere. This term is calculated via a single loop over all charges in |
| 94 |
the system. For the undamped case, the self-term can be written as |
| 95 |
\begin{equation} |
| 96 |
V_\textrm{self} = \sum_{i=1}^N\frac{q_iq_i}{2R_\textrm{c}}, |
| 97 |
\label{eq:selfTerm} |
| 98 |
\end{equation} |
| 99 |
while for the damped case it can be written as |
| 100 |
\begin{equation} |
| 101 |
V_\textrm{Dself} = \sum_{i=1}^Nq_iq_i\left(\frac{\alpha}{\sqrt{\pi}} |
| 102 |
+ \frac{\textrm{erfc}(\alpha R_\textrm{c})}{2R_\textrm{c}}\right). |
| 103 |
\label{eq:dampSelfTerm} |
| 104 |
\end{equation} |
| 105 |
The first term within the parentheses of equation |
| 106 |
(\ref{eq:dampSelfTerm}) is identical to the self-term in the Ewald |
| 107 |
summation, and comes from the utilization of the complimentary error |
| 108 |
function for electrostatic damping.\cite{deLeeuw80,Wolf99} |
| 109 |
|
| 110 |
\section{Multipolar Electrostatic Damping}\label{sec:dampingMultipoles} |
| 111 |
|
| 112 |
As stated above, the {\sc sf} method operates by neutralizing the |
| 113 |
charge pair force interactions (and potential) within the cutoff |
| 114 |
sphere with shifting and by damping the electrostatic |
| 115 |
interactions. Now we would like to consider an extension of these |
| 116 |
techniques to include point multipole interactions. How will the |
| 117 |
shifting and damping need to be modified in order to accommodate point |
| 118 |
multipoles? |
| 119 |
|
| 120 |
Of the two component techniques, the easiest to adapt is |
| 121 |
shifting. Shifting is employed to neutralize the cutoff sphere; |
| 122 |
however, in a system composed purely of point multipoles, the cutoff |
| 123 |
sphere is already neutralized. This means that shifting is not |
| 124 |
necessary between point multipoles. In a mixed system of monopoles and |
| 125 |
multipoles, the undamped {\sc sf} potential needs only to shift the |
| 126 |
force terms of the monopole and smoothly truncate the multipole |
| 127 |
interactions with a switching function. The switching function is |
| 128 |
required in order to conserve energy, because a discontinuity will |
| 129 |
exist in both the potential and forces at $R_\textrm{c}$ in the |
| 130 |
absence of shifting terms. |
| 131 |
|
| 132 |
If we want to dampen the {\sc sf} potential, then we need to |
| 133 |
incorporate the complimentary error function term into the multipole |
| 134 |
potentials. The most direct way to do this is by replacing $r^{-1}$ |
| 135 |
with erfc$(\alpha r)\cdot r^{-1}$ in the multipole expansion. In the |
| 136 |
multipole expansion, rather than considering only the interactions |
| 137 |
between single point charges, the electrostatic interaction is |
| 138 |
reformulated such that it describes the interaction between charge |
| 139 |
distributions about central sites of the respective sets of |
| 140 |
charges.\cite{Hirschfelder67} This procedure is what leads to the |
| 141 |
familiar charge-dipole, |
| 142 |
\begin{equation} |
| 143 |
V_\textrm{cd} = -q_i\frac{\boldsymbol{\mu}_j\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij}}{r^3_{ij}} |
| 144 |
= -q_i\mu_j\frac{\cos\theta}{r^2_{ij}}, |
| 145 |
\label{eq:chargeDipole} |
| 146 |
\end{equation} |
| 147 |
and dipole-dipole, |
| 148 |
\begin{equation} |
| 149 |
V_\textrm{dd} = 3\frac{(\boldsymbol{\mu}_i\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij}) |
| 150 |
(\boldsymbol{\mu}_j\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij})}{r^5_{ij}} - |
| 151 |
\frac{\boldsymbol{\mu}_i\cdot\boldsymbol{\mu}_j}{r^3_{ij}}, |
| 152 |
\label{eq:dipoleDipole} |
| 153 |
\end{equation} |
| 154 |
interaction potentials. |
| 155 |
|
| 156 |
Using the charge-dipole interaction as an example, if we insert |
| 157 |
erfc$(\alpha r)\cdot r^{-1}$ in place of $r^{-1}$, a damped |
| 158 |
charge-dipole results, |
| 159 |
\begin{equation} |
| 160 |
V_\textrm{Dcd} = -q_i\mu_j\frac{\cos\theta}{r^2_{ij}} c_1(r_{ij}), |
| 161 |
\label{eq:dChargeDipole} |
| 162 |
\end{equation} |
| 163 |
where $c_1(r_{ij})$ is |
| 164 |
\begin{equation} |
| 165 |
c_1(r_{ij}) = \frac{2\alpha r_{ij}e^{-\alpha^2r^2_{ij}}}{\sqrt{\pi}} |
| 166 |
+ \textrm{erfc}(\alpha r_{ij}). |
| 167 |
\label{eq:c1Func} |
| 168 |
\end{equation} |
| 169 |
Thus, $c_1(r_{ij})$ is the resulting damping term that modifies the |
| 170 |
standard charge-dipole potential (Eq. (\ref{eq:chargeDipole})). Note |
| 171 |
that this damping term is dependent upon distance and not upon |
| 172 |
orientation, and that it is acting on what was originally an |
| 173 |
$r^{-3}$ function. By writing the damped form in this manner, we |
| 174 |
can collect the damping into one function and apply it to the original |
| 175 |
potential when damping is desired. This works well for potentials that |
| 176 |
have only one $r^{-n}$ term (where $n$ is an odd positive integer); |
| 177 |
but in the case of the dipole-dipole potential, there is one part |
| 178 |
dependent on $r^{-3}$ and another dependent on $r^{-5}$. In order to |
| 179 |
properly damping this potential, each of these parts is dampened with |
| 180 |
separate damping functions. We can determine the necessary damping |
| 181 |
functions by continuing with the multipole expansion; however, it |
| 182 |
quickly becomes more complex with ``two-center'' systems, like the |
| 183 |
dipole-dipole potential, and is typically approached with a spherical |
| 184 |
harmonic formalism.\cite{Hirschfelder67} A simpler method for |
| 185 |
determining these functions arises from adopting the tensor formalism |
| 186 |
for expressing the electrostatic interactions.\cite{Stone02} |
| 187 |
|
| 188 |
The tensor formalism for electrostatic interactions involves obtaining |
| 189 |
the multipole interactions from successive gradients of the monopole |
| 190 |
potential. Thus, tensors of rank one through three are |
| 191 |
\begin{equation} |
| 192 |
T = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0r_{ij}}, |
| 193 |
\label{eq:tensorRank1} |
| 194 |
\end{equation} |
| 195 |
\begin{equation} |
| 196 |
T_\alpha = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\nabla_\alpha \frac{1}{r_{ij}}, |
| 197 |
\label{eq:tensorRank2} |
| 198 |
\end{equation} |
| 199 |
\begin{equation} |
| 200 |
T_{\alpha\beta} = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} |
| 201 |
\nabla_\alpha\nabla_\beta \frac{1}{r_{ij}}, |
| 202 |
\label{eq:tensorRank3} |
| 203 |
\end{equation} |
| 204 |
where the form of the first tensor gives the monopole-monopole |
| 205 |
potential, the second gives the monopole-dipole potential, and the |
| 206 |
third gives the monopole-quadrupole and dipole-dipole |
| 207 |
potentials.\cite{Stone02} Since the force is $-\nabla V$, the forces |
| 208 |
for each potential come from the next higher tensor. |
| 209 |
|
| 210 |
To obtain the damped electrostatic forms, we replace $r^{-1}$ with |
| 211 |
erfc$(\alpha r)\cdot r^{-1}$. Equation \ref{eq:tensorRank2} generates |
| 212 |
$c_1(r_{ij})$, just like the multipole expansion, while equation |
| 213 |
\ref{eq:tensorRank3} generates $c_2(r_{ij})$, where |
| 214 |
\begin{equation} |
| 215 |
c_2(r_{ij}) = \frac{4\alpha^3r^3_{ij}e^{-\alpha^2r^2_{ij}}}{3\sqrt{\pi}} |
| 216 |
+ \frac{2\alpha r_{ij}e^{-\alpha^2r^2_{ij}}}{\sqrt{\pi}} |
| 217 |
+ \textrm{erfc}(\alpha r_{ij}). |
| 218 |
\end{equation} |
| 219 |
Note that $c_2(r_{ij})$ is equal to $c_1(r_{ij})$ plus an additional |
| 220 |
term. Continuing with higher rank tensors, we can obtain the damping |
| 221 |
functions for higher multipole potentials and forces. Each subsequent |
| 222 |
damping function includes one additional term, and we can simplify the |
| 223 |
procedure for obtaining these terms by writing out the following |
| 224 |
generating function, |
| 225 |
\begin{equation} |
| 226 |
c_n(r_{ij}) = \frac{2^n(\alpha r_{ij})^{2n-1}e^{-\alpha^2r^2_{ij}}} |
| 227 |
{(2n-1)!!\sqrt{\pi}} + c_{n-1}(r_{ij}), |
| 228 |
\label{eq:dampingGeneratingFunc} |
| 229 |
\end{equation} |
| 230 |
where, |
| 231 |
\begin{equation} |
| 232 |
m!! \equiv \left\{ \begin{array}{l@{\quad\quad}l} |
| 233 |
m\cdot(m-2)\ldots 5\cdot3\cdot1 & m > 0\textrm{ odd} \\ |
| 234 |
m\cdot(m-2)\ldots 6\cdot4\cdot2 & m > 0\textrm{ even} \\ |
| 235 |
1 & m = -1\textrm{ or }0, |
| 236 |
\end{array}\right. |
| 237 |
\label{eq:doubleFactorial} |
| 238 |
\end{equation} |
| 239 |
and $c_0(r_{ij})$ is erfc$(\alpha r_{ij})$. This generating function |
| 240 |
is similar in form to those obtained by researchers for the |
| 241 |
application of the Ewald sum to |
| 242 |
multipoles.\cite{Smith82,Smith98,Aguado03} |
| 243 |
|
| 244 |
Returning to the dipole-dipole example, the potential consists of a |
| 245 |
portion dependent upon $r^{-5}$ and another dependent upon |
| 246 |
$r^{-3}$. In the damped dipole-dipole potential, |
| 247 |
\begin{equation} |
| 248 |
V_\textrm{Ddd} = 3\frac{(\boldsymbol{\mu}_i\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij}) |
| 249 |
(\boldsymbol{\mu}_j\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij})}{r^5_{ij}} |
| 250 |
c_2(r_{ij}) - |
| 251 |
\frac{\boldsymbol{\mu}_i\cdot\boldsymbol{\mu}_j}{r^3_{ij}} |
| 252 |
c_1(r_{ij}), |
| 253 |
\label{eq:dampDipoleDipole} |
| 254 |
\end{equation} |
| 255 |
$c_2(r_{ij})$ and $c_1(r_{ij})$ dampen these two parts |
| 256 |
respectively. The forces for the damped dipole-dipole interaction, |
| 257 |
\begin{equation} |
| 258 |
\begin{split} |
| 259 |
F_\textrm{Ddd} = &15\frac{(\boldsymbol{\mu}_i\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij}) |
| 260 |
(\boldsymbol{\mu}_j\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij})\mathbf{r}_{ij}}{r^7_{ij}} |
| 261 |
c_3(r_{ij})\\ &- |
| 262 |
3\frac{\boldsymbol{\mu}_i\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij}\cdot\hat{\boldsymbol{\mu}}_j + |
| 263 |
\boldsymbol{\mu}_j\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij}\cdot\hat{\boldsymbol{\mu}}_i + |
| 264 |
\boldsymbol{\mu}_i\cdot\boldsymbol{\mu}_j\cdot\mathbf{r}_{ij}} |
| 265 |
{r^5_{ij}} c_2(r_{ij}), |
| 266 |
\end{split} |
| 267 |
\label{eq:dampDipoleDipoleForces} |
| 268 |
\end{equation} |
| 269 |
rely on higher order damping functions because we perform another |
| 270 |
gradient operation. In this manner, we can dampen higher order |
| 271 |
multipolar interactions along with the monopole interactions, allowing |
| 272 |
us to include multipoles in simulations involving damped electrostatic |
| 273 |
interactions. |
| 274 |
|
| 275 |
\section{Applications of Pairwise Electrostatic Corrections: Water} |
| 276 |
|
| 277 |
In our earlier work, we performed a statistical comparison of both |
| 278 |
energetics and dynamics of the {\sc sf} and {\sc sp} methods, showing |
| 279 |
that these pairwise correction techniques are nearly equivalent to the |
| 280 |
Ewald summation in the simulation of general condensed |
| 281 |
systems.\cite{Fennell06} It would be beneficial to have some specific |
| 282 |
examples to better illustrate the similarities and differences of the |
| 283 |
pairwise (specifically {\sc sf}) and Ewald techniques. To address |
| 284 |
this, we decided to perform a detailed analysis involving water |
| 285 |
simulations. Water is a good test in that there is a great deal of |
| 286 |
detailed experimental information as well as an extensive library of |
| 287 |
results from a variety of theoretical models. In choosing a model for |
| 288 |
comparing these correction techniques, it is important to consider a |
| 289 |
model that has been optimized for use with corrected electrostatics so |
| 290 |
that the calculated properties are in better agreement with |
| 291 |
experiment.\cite{vanderSpoel98,Horn04,Rick04} For this reason, we |
| 292 |
chose the TIP5P-E water model.\cite{Rick04} |
| 293 |
|
| 294 |
\subsection{TIP5P-E} |
| 295 |
|
| 296 |
The TIP5P-E water model is a variant of Mahoney and Jorgensen's |
| 297 |
five-point transferable intermolecular potential (TIP5P) model for |
| 298 |
water.\cite{Mahoney00} TIP5P was developed to reproduce the density |
| 299 |
maximum anomaly present in liquid water near 4$^\circ$C. As with many |
| 300 |
previous point charge water models (such as ST2, TIP3P, TIP4P, SPC, |
| 301 |
and SPC/E), TIP5P was parametrized using a simple cutoff with no |
| 302 |
long-range electrostatic |
| 303 |
correction.\cite{Stillinger74,Jorgensen83,Berendsen81,Berendsen87} |
| 304 |
Without this correction, the pressure term on the central particle |
| 305 |
from the surroundings is missing. When this correction is included, |
| 306 |
systems of these particles expand to compensate for this added |
| 307 |
pressure term and under-predict the density of water under standard |
| 308 |
conditions. When using any form of long-range electrostatic |
| 309 |
correction, it has become common practice to develop or utilize a |
| 310 |
reparametrized water model that corrects for this |
| 311 |
effect.\cite{vanderSpoel98,Fennell04,Horn04} The TIP5P-E model follows |
| 312 |
this practice and was optimized for use with the Ewald |
| 313 |
summation.\cite{Rick04} In his publication, Rick preserved the |
| 314 |
geometry and point charge magnitudes in TIP5P and focused on altering |
| 315 |
the Lennard-Jones parameters to correct the density at 298~K. With the |
| 316 |
density corrected, he compared common water properties for TIP5P-E |
| 317 |
using the Ewald sum with TIP5P using a 9~\AA\ cutoff. |
| 318 |
|
| 319 |
In the following sections, we compared these same water properties |
| 320 |
calculated from TIP5P-E using the Ewald sum with TIP5P-E using the |
| 321 |
{\sc sf} technique. In the above evaluation of the pairwise |
| 322 |
techniques, we observed some flexibility in the choice of parameters. |
| 323 |
Because of this, the following comparisons include the {\sc sf} |
| 324 |
technique with a 12~\AA\ cutoff and an $\alpha$ = 0.0, 0.1, and |
| 325 |
0.2~\AA$^{-1}$, as well as a 9~\AA\ cutoff with an $\alpha$ = |
| 326 |
0.2~\AA$^{-1}$. |
| 327 |
|
| 328 |
\subsubsection{Density}\label{sec:t5peDensity} |
| 329 |
|
| 330 |
As stated previously, the property that prompted the development of |
| 331 |
TIP5P-E was the density at 1 atm. The density depends upon the |
| 332 |
internal pressure of the system in the $NPT$ ensemble, and the |
| 333 |
calculation of the pressure includes a components from both the |
| 334 |
kinetic energy and the virial. More specifically, the instantaneous |
| 335 |
molecular pressure ($p(t)$) is given by |
| 336 |
\begin{equation} |
| 337 |
p(t) = \frac{1}{\textrm{d}V}\sum_\mu |
| 338 |
\left[\frac{\mathbf{P}_{\mu}^2}{M_{\mu}} |
| 339 |
+ \mathbf{R}_{\mu}\cdot\sum_i\mathbf{F}_{\mu i}\right], |
| 340 |
\label{eq:MolecularPressure} |
| 341 |
\end{equation} |
| 342 |
where d is the dimensionality of the system, $V$ is the volume, |
| 343 |
$\mathbf{P}_{\mu}$ is the momentum of molecule $\mu$, $\mathbf{R}_\mu$ |
| 344 |
is the position of the center of mass ($M_\mu$) of molecule $\mu$, and |
| 345 |
$\mathbf{F}_{\mu i}$ is the force on atom $i$ of molecule |
| 346 |
$\mu$.\cite{Melchionna93} The virial term (the right term in the |
| 347 |
brackets of equation \ref{eq:MolecularPressure}) is directly dependent |
| 348 |
on the interatomic forces. Since the {\sc sp} method does not modify |
| 349 |
the forces, the pressure using {\sc sp} will be identical to that |
| 350 |
obtained without an electrostatic correction. The {\sc sf} method |
| 351 |
does alter the virial component and, by way of the modified pressures, |
| 352 |
should provide densities more in line with those obtained using the |
| 353 |
Ewald summation. |
| 354 |
|
| 355 |
To compare densities, $NPT$ simulations were performed with the same |
| 356 |
temperatures as those selected by Rick in his Ewald summation |
| 357 |
simulations.\cite{Rick04} In order to improve statistics around the |
| 358 |
density maximum, 3~ns trajectories were accumulated at 0, 12.5, and |
| 359 |
25$^\circ$C, while 2~ns trajectories were obtained at all other |
| 360 |
temperatures. The average densities were calculated from the later |
| 361 |
three-fourths of each trajectory. Similar to Mahoney and Jorgensen's |
| 362 |
method for accumulating statistics, these sequences were spliced into |
| 363 |
200 segments, each providing an average density. These 200 density |
| 364 |
values were used to calculate the average and standard deviation of |
| 365 |
the density at each temperature.\cite{Mahoney00} |
| 366 |

using the Ewald summation (Ref. \citen{Rick04}) and the {\sc sf} method |

| 372 |
is larger than that provided by the reciprocal-space portion of the |
| 373 |
Ewald summation, leading to slightly lower densities. This effect is |
| 374 |
more visible with the 9~\AA\ cutoff, where the image charges exert a |
| 375 |
greater force on the central particle. The error bars for the {\sc sf} |
| 376 |
methods show the average one-sigma uncertainty of the density |
| 377 |
measurement, and this uncertainty is the same for all the {\sc sf} |
| 378 |
curves.} |

\end{figure} |
| 381 |
Figure \ref{fig:t5peDensities} shows the densities calculated for |
| 382 |
TIP5P-E using differing electrostatic corrections overlaid on the |
| 383 |
experimental values.\cite{CRC80} The densities when using the {\sc sf} |
| 384 |
technique are close to, though typically lower than, those calculated |
| 385 |
using the Ewald summation. These slightly reduced densities indicate |
| 386 |
that the pressure component from the image charges at R$_\textrm{c}$ |
| 387 |
is larger than that exerted by the reciprocal-space portion of the |
| 388 |
Ewald summation. Bringing the image charges closer to the central |
| 389 |
particle by choosing a 9~\AA\ R$_\textrm{c}$ (rather than the |
| 390 |
preferred 12~\AA\ R$_\textrm{c}$) increases the strength of the image |
| 391 |
charge interactions on the central particle and results in a further |
| 392 |
reduction of the densities. |
| 393 |
|
| 394 |
Because the strength of the image charge interactions has a noticeable |
| 395 |
effect on the density, we would expect the use of electrostatic |
| 396 |
damping to also play a role in these calculations. Larger values of |
| 397 |
$\alpha$ weaken the pair-interactions; and since electrostatic damping |
| 398 |
is distance-dependent, force components from the image charges will be |
| 399 |
reduced more than those from particles close the the central |
| 400 |
charge. This effect is visible in figure \ref{fig:t5peDensities} with |
| 401 |
the damped {\sc sf} sums showing slightly higher densities; however, |
| 402 |
it is apparent that the choice of cutoff radius plays a much more |
| 403 |
important role in the resulting densities. |
| 404 |
|
| 405 |
As a final note, all of the above density calculations were performed |
| 406 |
with systems of 512 water molecules. Rick observed a system size |
| 407 |
dependence of the computed densities when using the Ewald summation, |
| 408 |
most likely due to his tying of the convergence parameter to the box |
| 409 |
dimensions.\cite{Rick04} For systems of 256 water molecules, the |
| 410 |
calculated densities were on average 0.002 to 0.003~g/cm$^3$ lower. A |
| 411 |
system size of 256 molecules would force the use of a shorter |
| 412 |
R$_\textrm{c}$ when using the {\sc sf} technique, and this would also |
| 413 |
lower the densities. Moving to larger systems, as long as the |
| 414 |
R$_\textrm{c}$ remains at a fixed value, we would expect the densities |
| 415 |
to remain constant. |

\subsubsection{Liquid Structure}\label{sec:t5peLiqStructure} |
| 418 |
|
| 419 |
A common function considered when developing and comparing water |
| 420 |
models is the oxygen-oxygen radial distribution function |
| 421 |
($g_\textrm{OO}(r)$). The $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$ is the probability of |
| 422 |
finding a pair of oxygen atoms some distance ($r$) apart relative to a |
| 423 |
random distribution at the same density.\cite{Allen87} It is |
| 424 |
calculated via |
| 425 |
\begin{equation} |
| 426 |
g_\textrm{OO}(r) = \frac{V}{N^2}\left\langle\sum_i\sum_{j\ne i} |
| 427 |
\delta(\mathbf{r}-\mathbf{r}_{ij})\right\rangle, |
| 428 |
\label{eq:GOOofR} |
| 429 |
\end{equation} |
| 430 |
where the double sum is over all $i$ and $j$ pairs of $N$ oxygen |
| 431 |
atoms. The $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$ can be directly compared to X-ray or |
| 432 |
neutron scattering experiments through the oxygen-oxygen structure |
| 433 |
factor ($S_\textrm{OO}(k)$) by the following relationship: |
| 434 |
\begin{equation} |
| 435 |
S_\textrm{OO}(k) = 1 + 4\pi\rho |
| 436 |
\int_0^\infty r^2\frac{\sin kr}{kr}g_\textrm{OO}(r)\textrm{d}r. |
| 437 |
\label{eq:SOOofK} |
| 438 |
\end{equation} |
| 439 |
Thus, $S_\textrm{OO}(k)$ is related to the Fourier-Laplace transform |
| 440 |
of $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$. |
| 441 |
|
| 442 |
The experimentally determined $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$ for liquid water has |
| 443 |
been compared in great detail with the various common water models, |
| 444 |
and TIP5P was found to be in better agreement than other rigid, |
| 445 |
non-polarizable models.\cite{Sorenson00} This excellent agreement with |
| 446 |
experiment was maintained when Rick developed TIP5P-E.\cite{Rick04} To |
| 447 |
check whether the choice of using the Ewald summation or the {\sc sf} |
| 448 |
technique alters the liquid structure, the $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$s at |
| 449 |
298~K and 1~atm were determined for the systems compared in the |
| 450 |
previous section. |
| 451 |
|
| 452 |
\begin{figure} |
| 453 |
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./figures/tip5peGofR.pdf} |
| 454 |
\caption{The $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$s calculated for TIP5P-E at 298~K and |

| 456 |
sf} technique with varying parameters. Even with the reduced densities |
| 457 |
using the {\sc sf} technique, the $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$s are essentially |
| 458 |
identical.} |

The $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$s calculated for TIP5P-E while using the {\sc |

sf} technique with a various parameters are overlaid on the |
| 463 |
$g_\textrm{OO}(r)$ while using the Ewald summation in |
| 464 |
figure~\ref{fig:t5peGofRs}. The differences in density do not appear |
| 465 |
to have any effect on the liquid structure as the $g_\textrm{OO}(r)$s |
| 466 |
are indistinguishable. These results indicate that the |
| 467 |
$g_\textrm{OO}(r)$ is insensitive to the choice of electrostatic |
| 468 |
correction. |
| 469 |

\subsubsection{Thermodynamic Properties}\label{sec:t5peThermo} |
| 471 |
|
| 472 |
In addition to the density, there are a variety of thermodynamic |
| 473 |
quantities that can be calculated for water and compared directly to |
| 474 |
experimental values. Some of these additional quantities include the |
| 475 |
latent heat of vaporization ($\Delta H_\textrm{vap}$), the constant |
| 476 |
pressure heat capacity ($C_p$), the isothermal compressibility |
| 477 |
($\kappa_T$), the thermal expansivity ($\alpha_p$), and the static |
| 478 |
dielectric constant ($\epsilon$). All of these properties were |
| 479 |
calculated for TIP5P-E with the Ewald summation, so they provide a |
| 480 |
good set for comparisons involving the {\sc sf} technique. |
| 481 |
|
| 482 |
The $\Delta H_\textrm{vap}$ is the enthalpy change required to |
| 483 |
transform one mole of substance from the liquid phase to the gas |
| 484 |
phase.\cite{Berry00} In molecular simulations, this quantity can be |
| 485 |
determined via |
| 486 |
\begin{equation} |
| 487 |
\begin{split} |
| 488 |
\Delta H_\textrm{vap} &= H_\textrm{gas} - H_\textrm{liq.} \\ |
| 489 |
&= E_\textrm{gas} - E_\textrm{liq.} |
| 490 |
+ p(V_\textrm{gas} - V_\textrm{liq.}) \\ |
| 491 |
&\approx -\frac{\langle U_\textrm{liq.}\rangle}{N}+ RT, |
| 492 |
\end{split} |
| 493 |
\label{eq:DeltaHVap} |
| 494 |
\end{equation} |
| 495 |
where $E$ is the total energy, $U$ is the potential energy, $p$ is the |
| 496 |
pressure, $V$ is the volume, $N$ is the number of molecules, $R$ is |
| 497 |
the gas constant, and $T$ is the temperature.\cite{Jorgensen98b} As |
| 498 |
seen in the last line of equation (\ref{eq:DeltaHVap}), we can |
| 499 |
approximate $\Delta H_\textrm{vap}$ by using the ideal gas for the gas |
| 500 |
state. This allows us to cancel the kinetic energy terms, leaving only |
| 501 |
the $U_\textrm{liq.}$ term. Additionally, the $pV$ term for the gas is |
| 502 |
several orders of magnitude larger than that of the liquid, so we can |
| 503 |
neglect the liquid $pV$ term. |
| 504 |
|
| 505 |
The remaining thermodynamic properties can all be calculated from |
| 506 |
fluctuations of the enthalpy, volume, and system dipole |
| 507 |
moment.\cite{Allen87} $C_p$ can be calculated from fluctuations in the |
| 508 |
enthalpy in constant pressure simulations via |
| 509 |
\begin{equation} |
| 510 |
\begin{split} |
| 511 |
C_p = \left(\frac{\partial H}{\partial T}\right)_{N,p} |
| 512 |
= \frac{(\langle H^2\rangle - \langle H\rangle^2)}{Nk_BT^2}, |
| 513 |
\end{split} |
| 514 |
\label{eq:Cp} |
| 515 |
\end{equation} |
| 516 |
where $k_B$ is Boltzmann's constant. $\kappa_T$ can be calculated via |
| 517 |
\begin{equation} |
| 518 |
\begin{split} |
| 519 |
\kappa_T = \frac{1}{V}\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial p}\right)_{N,T} |
| 520 |
= \frac{(\langle V^2\rangle_{N,P,T} - \langle V\rangle^2_{N,P,T})} |
| 521 |
{k_BT\langle V\rangle_{N,P,T}}, |
| 522 |
\end{split} |
| 523 |
\label{eq:kappa} |
| 524 |
\end{equation} |
| 525 |
and $\alpha_p$ can be calculated via |
| 526 |
\begin{equation} |
| 527 |
\begin{split} |
| 528 |
\alpha_p = \frac{1}{V}\left(\frac{\partial V}{\partial T}\right)_{N,P} |
| 529 |
= \frac{(\langle VH\rangle_{N,P,T} |
| 530 |
- \langle V\rangle_{N,P,T}\langle H\rangle_{N,P,T})} |
| 531 |
{k_BT^2\langle V\rangle_{N,P,T}}. |
| 532 |
\end{split} |
| 533 |
\label{eq:alpha} |
| 534 |
\end{equation} |
| 535 |
Using the Ewald sum under tin-foil boundary conditions, $\epsilon$ can |
| 536 |
be calculated for systems of non-polarizable substances via |
| 537 |
\begin{equation} |
| 538 |
\epsilon = 1 + \frac{\langle M^2\rangle}{3\epsilon_0k_\textrm{B}TV}, |
| 539 |
\label{eq:staticDielectric} |
| 540 |
\end{equation} |
| 541 |
where $\epsilon_0$ is the permittivity of free space and $\langle |
| 542 |
M^2\rangle$ is the fluctuation of the system dipole |
| 543 |
moment.\cite{Allen87} The numerator in the fractional term in equation |
| 544 |
(\ref{eq:staticDielectric}) is the fluctuation of the simulation-box |
| 545 |
dipole moment, identical to the quantity calculated in the |
| 546 |
finite-system Kirkwood $g$ factor ($G_k$): |
| 547 |
\begin{equation} |
| 548 |
G_k = \frac{\langle M^2\rangle}{N\mu^2}, |
| 549 |
\label{eq:KirkwoodFactor} |
| 550 |
\end{equation} |
| 551 |
where $\mu$ is the dipole moment of a single molecule of the |
| 552 |
homogeneous system.\cite{Neumann83,Neumann84,Neumann85} The |
| 553 |
fluctuation term in both equation (\ref{eq:staticDielectric}) and |
| 554 |
\ref{eq:KirkwoodFactor} is calculated as follows, |
| 555 |
\begin{equation} |
| 556 |
\begin{split} |
| 557 |
\langle M^2\rangle &= \langle\bm{M}\cdot\bm{M}\rangle |
| 558 |
- \langle\bm{M}\rangle\cdot\langle\bm{M}\rangle \\ |
| 559 |
&= \langle M_x^2+M_y^2+M_z^2\rangle |
| 560 |
- (\langle M_x\rangle^2 + \langle M_x\rangle^2 |
| 561 |
+ \langle M_x\rangle^2). |
| 562 |
\end{split} |
| 563 |
\label{eq:fluctBoxDipole} |
| 564 |
\end{equation} |
| 565 |
This fluctuation term can be accumulated during the simulation; |
| 566 |
however, it converges rather slowly, thus requiring multi-nanosecond |
| 567 |
simulation times.\cite{Horn04} In the case of tin-foil boundary |
| 568 |
conditions, the dielectric/surface term of the Ewald summation is |
| 569 |
equal to zero. Since the {\sc sf} method also lacks this |
| 570 |
dielectric/surface term, equation (\ref{eq:staticDielectric}) is still |
| 571 |
valid for determining static dielectric constants. |
| 572 |
|
| 573 |
All of the above properties were calculated from the same trajectories |
| 574 |
used to determine the densities in section \ref{sec:t5peDensity} |
| 575 |
except for the static dielectric constants. The $\epsilon$ values were |
| 576 |
accumulated from 2~ns $NVE$ ensemble trajectories with system densities |
| 577 |
fixed at the average values from the $NPT$ simulations at each of the |
| 578 |
temperatures. The resulting values are displayed in figure |
| 579 |
\ref{fig:t5peThermo}. |
| 580 |

| 593 |
\label{fig:t5peThermo} |
| 594 |
\end{figure} |
| 595 |
|
| 596 |
As observed for the density in section \ref{sec:t5peDensity}, the |
| 597 |
property trends with temperature seen when using the Ewald summation |
| 598 |
are reproduced with the {\sc sf} technique. One noticeable difference |
| 599 |
between the properties calculated using the two methods are the lower |
| 600 |
$\Delta H_\textrm{vap}$ values when using {\sc sf}. This is to be |
| 601 |
expected due to the direct weakening of the electrostatic interaction |
| 602 |
through forced neutralization. This results in an increase of the |
| 603 |
intermolecular potential producing lower values from equation |
| 604 |
(\ref{eq:DeltaHVap}). The slopes of these values with temperature are |
| 605 |
similar to that seen using the Ewald summation; however, they are both |
| 606 |
steeper than the experimental trend, indirectly resulting in the |
| 607 |
inflated $C_p$ values at all temperatures. |
| 608 |
|
| 609 |
Above the supercooled regime, $C_p$, $\kappa_T$, and $\alpha_p$ values |
| 610 |
all overlap within error. As indicated for the $\Delta H_\textrm{vap}$ |
| 611 |
and $C_p$ results discussed in the previous paragraph, the deviations |
| 612 |
between experiment and simulation in this region are not the fault of |
| 613 |
the electrostatic summation methods but are due to the geometry and |
| 614 |
parameters of the TIP5P class of water models. Like most rigid, |
| 615 |
non-polarizable, point-charge water models, the density decreases with |
| 616 |
temperature at a much faster rate than experiment (see figure |
| 617 |
\ref{fig:t5peDensities}). This reduced density leads to the inflated |
| 618 |
compressibility and expansivity values at higher temperatures seen |
| 619 |
here in figure \ref{fig:t5peThermo}. Incorporation of polarizability |
| 620 |
and many-body effects are required in order for water models to |
| 621 |
overcome differences between simulation-based and experimentally |
| 622 |
determined densities at these higher |
| 623 |
temperatures.\cite{Laasonen93,Donchev06} |
| 624 |
|
| 625 |
At temperatures below the freezing point for experimental water, the |
| 626 |
differences between {\sc sf} and the Ewald summation results are more |
| 627 |
apparent. The larger $C_p$ and lower $\alpha_p$ values in this region |
| 628 |
indicate a more pronounced transition in the supercooled regime, |
| 629 |
particularly in the case of {\sc sf} without damping. This points to |
| 630 |
the onset of a more frustrated or glassy behavior for TIP5P-E at |
| 631 |
temperatures below 250~K in the {\sc sf} simulations, indicating that |
| 632 |
disorder in the reciprocal-space term of the Ewald summation might act |
| 633 |
to loosen up the local structure more than the image-charges in {\sc |
| 634 |
sf}. The damped {\sc sf} actually makes a better comparison with |
| 635 |
experiment in this region, particularly for the $\alpha_p$ values. The |
| 636 |
local interactions in the undamped {\sc sf} technique appear to be too |
| 637 |
strong since the property change is much more dramatic than the damped |
| 638 |
forms, while the Ewald summation appears to weight the |
| 639 |
reciprocal-space interactions at the expense the local interactions, |
| 640 |
disagreeing with the experimental results. This observation is |
| 641 |
explored further in section \ref{sec:t5peDynamics}. |
| 642 |
|
| 643 |
The final thermodynamic property displayed in figure |
| 644 |
\ref{fig:t5peThermo}, $\epsilon$, shows the greatest discrepancy |
| 645 |
between the Ewald summation and the {\sc sf} technique (and experiment |
| 646 |
for that matter). It is known that the dielectric constant is |
| 647 |
dependent upon and quite sensitive to the imposed boundary |
| 648 |
conditions.\cite{Neumann80,Neumann83} This is readily apparent in the |
| 649 |
converged $\epsilon$ values accumulated for the {\sc sf} |
| 650 |
simulations. Lack of a damping function results in dielectric |
| 651 |
constants significantly smaller than those obtained using the Ewald |
| 652 |
sum. Increasing the damping coefficient to 0.2~\AA$^{-1}$ improves the |
| 653 |
agreement considerably. It should be noted that the choice of the |
| 654 |
``Ewald coefficient'' value also has a significant effect on the |
| 655 |
calculated value when using the Ewald summation. In the simulations of |
| 656 |
TIP5P-E with the Ewald sum, this screening parameter was tethered to |
| 657 |
the simulation box size (as was the $R_\textrm{c}$).\cite{Rick04} In |
| 658 |
general, systems with larger screening parameters reported larger |
| 659 |
dielectric constant values, the same behavior we see here with {\sc |
| 660 |
sf}; however, the choice of cutoff radius also plays an important |
| 661 |
role. This connection is further explored below as optimal damping |
| 662 |
coefficients for different choices of $R_\textrm{c}$ are determined |
| 663 |
for {\sc sf} in order to best capture the dielectric behavior. |
| 664 |
|
| 665 |
\subsubsection{Dielectric Constant}\label{sec:t5peDielectric} |
| 666 |
|
| 667 |
In the previous, we observed that the choice of damping coefficient |
| 668 |
plays a major role in the calculated dielectric constant. This is not |
| 669 |
too surprising given the results for damping parameter influence on |
| 670 |
the long-time correlated motions of the NaCl crystal in our previous |
| 671 |
study.\cite{Fennell06} The static dielectric constant is calculated |
| 672 |
from the long-time fluctuations of the system's accumulated dipole |
| 673 |
moment (Eq. (\ref{eq:staticDielectric})), so it is going to be quite |
| 674 |
sensitive to the choice of damping parameter. We would like to choose |
| 675 |
optimal damping constants such that any arbitrary choice of cutoff |
| 676 |
radius will properly capture the dielectric behavior of the liquid. |
| 677 |
|
| 678 |
In order to find these optimal values, we mapped out the static |
| 679 |
dielectric constant as a function of both the damping parameter and |
| 680 |
cutoff radius. To calculate the static dielectric constant, we |
| 681 |
performed 5~ns $NPT$ calculations on systems of 512 TIP5P-E water |
| 682 |
molecules and averaged over the converged region (typically the later |
| 683 |
2.5~ns) of equation (\ref{eq:staticDielectric}). The selected cutoff |
| 684 |
radii ranged from 9, 10, 11, and 12~\AA , and the damping parameter |
| 685 |
values ranged from 0.1 to 0.35~\AA$^{-1}$. |

The results of these calculations are displayed in table |
| 715 |
\ref{tab:tip5peDielectricMap}. Coloring of the table is based on the |
| 716 |
numerical values within the cells and was added to better facilitate |
| 717 |
interpretation of the displayed data and highlight trends in the |
| 718 |
dielectric constant behavior. This makes it easy to see that the |
| 719 |
dielectric constant is linear with respect to $\alpha$ and |
| 720 |
$R_\textrm{c}$ in the low to moderate damping regions, and the slope |
| 721 |
is 0.025~\AA$^{-1}\cdot R_\textrm{c}^{-1}$. Another point to note is |
| 722 |
that choosing $\alpha$ and $R_\textrm{c}$ identical to those used with |
| 723 |
the Ewald summation results in the same calculated dielectric |
| 724 |
constant. As an example, in the paper outlining the development of |
| 725 |
TIP5P-E, the real-space cutoff and Ewald coefficient were tethered to |
| 726 |
the system size, and for a 512 molecule system are approximately |
| 727 |
12~\AA\ and 0.25~\AA$^{-1}$ respectively.\cite{Rick04} These |
| 728 |
parameters resulted in a dielectric constant of 92$\pm$14, while with |
| 729 |
{\sc sf} these parameters give a dielectric constant of |
| 730 |
90.8$\pm$0.9. Another example comes from the TIP4P-Ew paper where |
| 731 |
$\alpha$ and $R_\textrm{c}$ were chosen to be 9.5~\AA\ and |
| 732 |
0.35~\AA$^{-1}$, and these parameters resulted in a dielectric |
| 733 |
constant equal to 63$\pm$1.\cite{Horn04} Calculations using {\sc sf} |
| 734 |
with these parameters and this water model give a dielectric constant |
| 735 |
of 61$\pm$1. Since the dielectric constant is dependent on $\alpha$ |
| 736 |
and $R_\textrm{c}$ with the {\sc sf} technique, it might be |
| 737 |
interesting to investigate the dielectric dependence of the real-space |
| 738 |
Ewald parameters. |
| 739 |
|
| 740 |
Although it is tempting to choose damping parameters equivalent to |
| 741 |
these Ewald examples, the results of our previous work indicate that |
| 742 |
values this high are destructive to both the energetics and |
| 743 |
dynamics.\cite{Fennell06} Ideally, $\alpha$ should not exceed |
| 744 |
0.3~\AA$^{-1}$ for any of the cutoff values in this range. If the |
| 745 |
optimal damping parameter is chosen to be midway between 0.275 and |
| 746 |
0.3~\AA$^{-1}$ (0.2875~\AA$^{-1}$) at the 9~\AA\ cutoff, then the |
| 747 |
linear trend with $R_\textrm{c}$ will always keep $\alpha$ below |
| 748 |
0.3~\AA$^{-1}$ for the studied cutoff radii. This linear progression |
| 749 |
would give values of 0.2875, 0.2625, 0.2375, and 0.2125~\AA$^{-1}$ for |
| 750 |
cutoff radii of 9, 10, 11, and 12~\AA. Setting this to be the default |
| 751 |
behavior for the damped {\sc sf} technique will result in consistent |
| 752 |
dielectric behavior for these and other condensed molecular systems, |
| 753 |
regardless of the chosen cutoff radius. The static dielectric |
| 754 |
constants for TIP5P-E simulations with 9 and 12\AA\ $R_\textrm{c}$ |
| 755 |
values using their respective damping parameters are 76$\pm$1 and |
| 756 |
75$\pm$2. These values are lower than the values reported for TIP5P-E |
| 757 |
with the Ewald sum; however, they are more in line with the values |
| 758 |
reported by Mahoney {\it et al.} for TIP5P while using a reaction |
| 759 |
field (RF) with an infinite RF dielectric constant |
| 760 |
(81.5$\pm$1.6).\cite{Mahoney00} As a final note, aside from a slight |
| 761 |
lowering of $\Delta H_\textrm{vap}$, using these $\alpha$ values does |
| 762 |
not alter the other other thermodynamic properties. |

\subsubsection{Dynamic Properties}\label{sec:t5peDynamics} |
| 765 |
|
| 766 |
To look at the dynamic properties of TIP5P-E when using the {\sc sf} |
| 767 |
method, 200~ps $NVE$ simulations were performed for each temperature |
| 768 |
at the average density reported by the $NPT$ simulations using 9 and |
| 769 |
12~\AA\ $R_\textrm{c}$ values using the ideal $\alpha$ values |
| 770 |
determined above (0.2875 and 0.2125~\AA$^{-1}$). The self-diffusion |
| 771 |
constants ($D$) were calculated using the mean square displacement |
| 772 |
(MSD) form of the Einstein relation, |
| 773 |
\begin{equation} |
| 774 |
D = \lim_{t\rightarrow\infty} |
| 775 |
\frac{\langle\left|\mathbf{r}_i(t)-\mathbf{r}_i(0)\right|^2\rangle}{6t}, |
| 776 |
\label{eq:MSD} |
| 777 |
\end{equation} |
| 778 |
where $t$ is time, and $\mathbf{r}_i$ is the position of particle |
| 779 |
$i$.\cite{Allen87} |
| 780 |

| 788 |
\end{figure} |
| 789 |
In addition to translational diffusion, orientational relaxation times |
| 790 |
were calculated for comparisons with the Ewald simulations and with |
| 791 |
experiments. These values were determined from the same 200~ps $NVE$ |
| 792 |
trajectories used for translational diffusion by calculating the |
| 793 |
orientational time correlation function, |
| 794 |
\begin{equation} |
| 795 |
C_l^\alpha(t) = \left\langle P_l\left[\hat{\mathbf{u}}_i^\alpha(t) |
| 796 |
\cdot\hat{\mathbf{u}}_i^\alpha(0)\right]\right\rangle, |
| 797 |
\label{eq:OrientCorr} |
| 798 |
\end{equation} |
| 799 |
where $P_l$ is the Legendre polynomial of order $l$ and |
| 800 |
$\hat{\mathbf{u}}_i^\alpha$ is the unit vector of molecule $i$ along |
| 801 |
principle axis $\alpha$. The principle axis frame for these water |
| 802 |
molecules is shown in figure \ref{fig:waterFrame}. As an example, |
| 803 |
$C_l^y$ is calculated from the time evolution of the unit vector |
| 804 |
connecting the two hydrogen atoms. |
| 805 |
|
| 806 |

\label{fig:OrientCorr} |
| 813 |
\end{figure} |
| 814 |
From the orientation autocorrelation functions, we can obtain time |
| 815 |
constants for rotational relaxation. Figure \ref{fig:OrientCorr} shows |
| 816 |
some example plots of orientational autocorrelation functions for the |
| 817 |
first and second Legendre polynomials. The relatively short time |
| 818 |
portions (between 1 and 3~ps for water) of these curves can be fit to |
| 819 |
an exponential decay to obtain these constants, and they are directly |
| 820 |
comparable to water orientational relaxation times from nuclear |
| 821 |
magnetic resonance (NMR). The relaxation constant obtained from |
| 822 |
$C_2^y(t)$ is of particular interest because it describes the |
| 823 |
relaxation of the principle axis connecting the hydrogen atoms. Thus, |
| 824 |
$C_2^y(t)$ can be compared to the intermolecular portion of the |
| 825 |
dipole-dipole relaxation from a proton NMR signal and should provide |
| 826 |
the best estimate of the NMR relaxation time constant.\cite{Impey82} |

| 838 |
Results for the diffusion constants and orientational relaxation times |
| 839 |
are shown in figure \ref{fig:t5peDynamics}. From this figure, it is |
| 840 |
apparent that the trends for both $D$ and $\tau_2^y$ of TIP5P-E using |
| 841 |
the Ewald sum are reproduced with the {\sc sf} technique. The enhanced |
| 842 |
diffusion at high temperatures are again the product of the lower |
| 843 |
densities in comparison with experiment and do not provide any special |
| 844 |
insight into differences between the electrostatic summation |
| 845 |
techniques. With the undamped {\sc sf} technique, TIP5P-E tends to |
| 846 |
diffuse a little faster than with the Ewald sum; however, use of light |
| 847 |
to moderate damping results in indistinguishable $D$ values. Though |
| 848 |
not apparent in this figure, {\sc sf} values at the lowest temperature |
| 849 |
are approximately twice as slow as $D$ values obtained using the Ewald |
| 850 |
sum. These values support the observation from section |
| 851 |
\ref{sec:t5peThermo} that there appeared to be a change to a more |
| 852 |
glassy-like phase with the {\sc sf} technique at these lower |
| 853 |
temperatures, though this change seems to be more prominent with the |
| 854 |
{\it undamped} {\sc sf} method, which has stronger local pairwise |
| 855 |
electrostatic interactions. |
| 856 |
|
| 857 |
The $\tau_2^y$ results in the lower frame of figure |
| 858 |
\ref{fig:t5peDynamics} show a much greater difference between the {\sc |
| 859 |
sf} results and the Ewald results. At all temperatures shown, TIP5P-E |
| 860 |
relaxes faster than experiment with the Ewald sum while tracking |
| 861 |
experiment fairly well when using the {\sc sf} technique, independent |
| 862 |
of the choice of damping constant. Their are several possible reasons |
| 863 |
for this deviation between techniques. The Ewald results were |
| 864 |
calculated using shorter (10ps) trajectories than the {\sc sf} results |
| 865 |
(25ps). A quick calculation from a 10~ps trajectory with {\sc sf} with |
| 866 |
an $\alpha$ of 0.2~\AA$^{-1}$ at 25$^\circ$C showed a 0.4~ps drop in |
| 867 |
$\tau_2^y$, placing the result more in line with that obtained using |
| 868 |
the Ewald sum. This example supports this explanation; however, |
| 869 |
recomputing the results to meet a poorer statistical standard is |
| 870 |
counter-productive. Assuming the Ewald results are not entirely the |
| 871 |
product of poor statistics, differences in techniques to integrate the |
| 872 |
orientational motion could also play a role. {\sc shake} is the most |
| 873 |
commonly used technique for approximating rigid-body orientational |
| 874 |
motion,\cite{Ryckaert77} whereas in {\sc oopse}, we maintain and |
| 875 |
integrate the entire rotation matrix using the {\sc dlm} |
| 876 |
method.\cite{Meineke05} Since {\sc shake} is an iterative constraint |
| 877 |
technique, if the convergence tolerances are raised for increased |
| 878 |
performance, error will accumulate in the orientational |
| 879 |
motion. Finally, the Ewald results were calculated using the $NVT$ |
| 880 |
ensemble, while the $NVE$ ensemble was used for {\sc sf} |
| 881 |
calculations. The additional mode of motion due to the thermostat will |
| 882 |
alter the dynamics, resulting in differences between $NVT$ and $NVE$ |
| 883 |
results. These differences are increasingly noticeable as the |
| 884 |
thermostat time constant decreases. |

\subsection{SSD/RF} |
| 888 |
|
| 889 |
In section \ref{sec:dampingMultipoles}, we described a method for |
| 890 |
applying the damped {\sc sf} technique to systems containing point |
| 891 |
multipoles. The soft sticky dipole (SSD) family of water models is the |
| 892 |
perfect test case because of the dipole-dipole (and |
| 893 |
charge-dipole/quadrupole) interactions that are present. As alluded to |
| 894 |
in the name, soft sticky dipole water models are single point |
| 895 |
molecules that consist of a ``soft'' Lennard-Jones sphere, a |
| 896 |
point-dipole, and a tetrahedral function for capturing the hydrogen |
| 897 |
bonding nature of water - a spherical harmonic term for water-water |
| 898 |
tetrahedral interactions and a point-quadrupole for interactions with |
| 899 |
surrounding charges. Detailed descriptions of these models can be |
| 900 |
found in other studies.\cite{Liu96b,Chandra99,Tan03,Fennell04} |
| 901 |
|
| 902 |
In deciding which version of the SSD model to use, we need only |
| 903 |
consider that the {\sc sf} technique was presented as a pairwise |
| 904 |
replacement for the Ewald summation. It has been suggested that models |
| 905 |
parametrized for the Ewald summation (like TIP5P-E) would be |
| 906 |
appropriate for use with a reaction field and vice versa.\cite{Rick04} |
| 907 |
Therefore, we decided to test the SSD/RF water model, which was |
| 908 |
parametrized for use with a reaction field, with this damped |
| 909 |
electrostatic technique to see how the calculated properties change. |

| 935 |
The properties shown in table \ref{tab:dampedSSDRF} compare |
| 936 |
quite well. The average density shows a modest increase when |
| 937 |
using damped electrostatics in place of the reaction field. This comes |
| 938 |
about because we neglect the pressure effect due to the surroundings |
| 939 |
outside of the cutoff, instead relying on screening effects to |
| 940 |
neutralize electrostatic interactions at long distances. The $C_p$ |
| 941 |
also shows a slight increase, indicating greater fluctuation in the |
| 942 |
enthalpy at constant pressure. The only other differences between the |
| 943 |
damped and reaction field results are the dipole reorientational time |
| 944 |
constants, $\tau_1$ and $\tau_2$. When using damped electrostatics, |
| 945 |
the water molecules relax more quickly and exhibit behavior very |
| 946 |
similar to the experimental values. These results indicate that not |
| 947 |
only is it reasonable to use damped electrostatics with SSD/RF, it is |
| 948 |
recommended if capturing realistic dynamics is of primary |
| 949 |
importance. This is an encouraging result because the damping methods |
| 950 |
are more generally applicable than reaction field. Using damping, |
| 951 |
SSD/RF can be used effectively with mixed systems, such as dissolved |
| 952 |
ions, dissolved organic molecules, or even proteins. |

In addition to the properties tabulated in table |
| 983 |
\ref{tab:dampedSSDRF}, we mapped out the static dielectric constant of |
| 984 |
SSD/RF as a function of $R_\textrm{c}$ and $\alpha$ in the same |
| 985 |
fashion as in section \ref{sec:t5peDielectric} with TIP5P-E. It is |
| 986 |
apparent from this table that electrostatic damping has a more |
| 987 |
pronounced effect on the dipolar interactions of SSD/RF than the |
| 988 |
monopolar interactions of TIP5P-E. The dielectric constant covers a |
| 989 |
much wider range and has a steeper slope with increasing damping |
| 990 |
parameter. We can use the same trend of $\alpha$ with $R_\textrm{c}$ |
| 991 |
used with TIP5P-E, and for a 12~\AA\ $R_\textrm{c}$, the resulting |
| 992 |
dielectric constant is 82.6$\pm$0.6. This value compares very |
| 993 |
favorably with the experimental value of 78.3.\cite{Malmberg56} This |
| 994 |
is not surprising given that early studies of the SSD model indicate a |
| 995 |
static dielectric constant around 81.\cite{Liu96} |

\section{Application of Pairwise Electrostatic Corrections: Imaginary Ice} |
| 998 |
|
| 999 |
In an earlier work, we performed a series of free energy calculations |
| 1000 |
on several ice polymorphs which are stable or metastable at low |
| 1001 |
pressures, one of which (Ice-$i$) we observed in spontaneous |
| 1002 |
crystallizations of an SSD type single point water |
| 1003 |
model.\cite{Fennell05} In this study, a distinct dependence of the |
| 1004 |
free energies on the interaction cutoff and correction technique was |
| 1005 |
observed. Being that the {\sc sf} technique can be used as a simple |
| 1006 |
and efficient replacement for the Ewald summation, it would be |
| 1007 |
interesting to apply it in addressing the question of the free |
| 1008 |
energies of these ice polymorphs with varying water models. To this |
| 1009 |
end, we set up thermodynamic integrations of all of the previously |
| 1010 |
discussed ice polymorphs using the {\sc sf} technique with a cutoff |
| 1011 |
radius of 12~\AA\ and an $\alpha$ of 0.2125~\AA . These calculations |
| 1012 |
were performed on TIP5P-E and TIP4P-Ew (variants of the root models |
| 1013 |
optimized for the Ewald summation) as well as SPC/E, and SSD/RF. |

\end{table} |
| 1035 |
The results of these calculations in table \ref{tab:dampedFreeEnergy} |
| 1036 |
show similar behavior to the Ewald results in the previous study, at |
| 1037 |
least for SSD/RF and SPC/E which are present in both.\cite{Fennell05} |
| 1038 |
The Helmholtz free energies of the ice polymorphs with SSD/RF order in |
| 1039 |
the same fashion, with Ice-$i$ having the lowest free energy; however, |
| 1040 |
the Ice-$i$ and ice B free energies are quite a bit closer (nearly |
| 1041 |
isoenergetic). The SPC/E results show the near isoenergetic behavior |
| 1042 |
when using the Ewald summation.\cite{Fennell05} Ice B has the lowest |
| 1043 |
Helmholtz free energy; however, all the polymorph results overlap |
| 1044 |
within error. |
| 1045 |
|
| 1046 |
The most interesting results from these calculations come from the |
| 1047 |
more expensive TIP4P-Ew and TIP5P-E results. Both of these models were |
| 1048 |
optimized for use with an electrostatic correction and are |
| 1049 |
geometrically arranged to mimic water following two different |
| 1050 |
ideas. In TIP5P-E, the primary location for the negative charge in the |
| 1051 |
molecule is assigned to the lone-pairs of the oxygen, while TIP4P-Ew |
| 1052 |
places the negative charge near the center-of-mass along the H-O-H |
| 1053 |
bisector. There is some debate as to which is the proper choice for |
| 1054 |
the negative charge location, and this has in part led to a six-site |
| 1055 |
water model that balances both of these options.\cite{Vega05,Nada03} |
| 1056 |
The limited results in table \ref{tab:dampedFreeEnergy} support the |
| 1057 |
results of Vega {\it et al.}, which indicate the TIP4P charge location |
| 1058 |
geometry is more physically valid.\cite{Vega05} With the TIP4P-Ew |
| 1059 |
water model, the experimentally observed polymorph (ice |
| 1060 |
I$_\textrm{h}$) is the preferred form with ice I$_\textrm{c}$ slightly |
| 1061 |
higher in energy, though overlapping within error. Additionally, the |
| 1062 |
less realistic ice B and Ice-$i^\prime$ structures are destabilized |
| 1063 |
relative to these polymorphs. TIP5P-E shows similar behavior to SPC/E, |
| 1064 |
where there is no real free energy distinction between the various |
| 1065 |
polymorphs, because many overlap within error. While ice B is close in |
| 1066 |
free energy to the other polymorphs, these results fail to support the |
| 1067 |
findings of other researchers indicating the preferred form of TIP5P |
| 1068 |
at 1~atm is a structure similar to ice |
| 1069 |
B.\cite{Yamada02,Vega05,Abascal05} It should be noted that we are |
| 1070 |
looking at TIP5P-E rather than TIP5P, and the differences in the |
| 1071 |
Lennard-Jones parameters could be a reason for this dissimilarity. |
| 1072 |
Overall, these results indicate that TIP4P-Ew is a better mimic of |
| 1073 |
real water than these other models when studying crystallization and |
| 1074 |
solid forms of water. |
