27 chrisfen 1872 Canonical ensemble (NVT) molecular dynamics calculations were
28     performed using the OOPSE molecular mechanics package.\cite{Meineke05}
29     All molecules were treated as rigid bodies, with orientational motion
30     propagated using the symplectic DLM integration method. Details about
31     the implementation of this technique can be found in a recent
32     publication.\cite{Dullweber1997}
33    
34     Thermodynamic integration is an established technique for
35     determination of free energies of condensed phases of
36     materials.\cite{Frenkel84,Hermens88,Meijer90,Baez95a,Vlot99}. This
37     method, implemented in the same manner illustrated by B\`{a}ez and
38     Clancy, was utilized to calculate the free energy of several ice
39     crystals at 200 K using the TIP3P, TIP4P, TIP5P, SPC/E, SSD/RF, and
40     SSD/E water models.\cite{Baez95a} Liquid state free energies at 300
41     and 400 K for all of these water models were also determined using
42     this same technique, in order to determine melting points and to
43 chrisfen 1879 generate phase diagrams. System sizes were 648 or 1728 molecules for
44     ice B, 1024 or 1280 molecules for ice $I_h$, 1000 molecules for ice
45     $I_c$, and 1024 molecules for Ice-{\it i} and the liquid state
46     simulations. The larger crystal sizes were necessary for simulations
47     involving larger cutoff values. All simulations were carried out at
48 chrisfen 1872 densities which correspond to a pressure of approximately 1 atm at
49     their respective temperatures.
50    
51     Thermodynamic integration involves a sequence of simulations during
52     which the system of interest is converted into a reference system for
53     which the free energy is known analytically. This transformation path
54     is then integrated in order to determine the free energy difference
55     between the two states:
56     \begin{equation}
57     \Delta A = \int_0^1\left\langle\frac{\partial V(\lambda
58     )}{\partial\lambda}\right\rangle_\lambda d\lambda,
59     \end{equation}
60     where $V$ is the interaction potential and $\lambda$ is the
61     transformation parameter that scales the overall potential.
62     Simulations are distributed strategically along this path in order to
63     sufficiently sample the regions of greatest change in the potential.
64     Typical integrations in this study consisted of $\sim$25 simulations
65     ranging from 300 ps (for the unaltered system) to 75 ps (near the
66     reference state) in length.
67    
68     For the thermodynamic integration of molecular crystals, the Einstein
69     crystal was chosen as the reference system. In an Einstein crystal,
70     the molecules are restrained at their ideal lattice locations and
71     orientations. Using harmonic restraints, as applied by B\`{a}ez and
72     Clancy, the total potential for this reference crystal
73     ($V_\mathrm{EC}$) is the sum of all the harmonic restraints,
74     \begin{equation}
75     V_\mathrm{EC} = \frac{K_\mathrm{v}r^2}{2} + \frac{K_\theta\theta^2}{2} +
76     \frac{K_\omega\omega^2}{2},
77     \end{equation}
78     where $K_\mathrm{v}$, $K_\mathrm{\theta}$, and $K_\mathrm{\omega}$ are
79     the spring constants restraining translational motion and deflection
80     of and rotation around the principle axis of the molecule
81     respectively. These spring constants are typically calculated from
82     the mean-square displacements of water molecules in an unrestrained
83     ice crystal at 200 K. For these studies, $K_\mathrm{r} = 4.29$ kcal
84     mol$^{-1}$, $K_\theta\ = 13.88$ kcal mol$^{-1}$, and $K_\omega\ =
85     17.75$ kcal mol$^{-1}$. It is clear from Fig. \ref{waterSpring} that
86     the values of $\theta$ range from $0$ to $\pi$, while $\omega$ ranges
87     from $-\pi$ to $\pi$. The partition function for a molecular crystal
88     restrained in this fashion can be evaluated analytically, and the
89     Helmholtz Free Energy ({\it A}) is given by
90     \begin{eqnarray}
91     A = E_m\ -\ kT\ln \left (\frac{kT}{h\nu}\right )^3&-&kT\ln \left
92     [\pi^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{A}kT}{h^2}\right
93     )^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{B}kT}{h^2}\right
94     )^\frac{1}{2}\left (\frac{8\pi^2I_\mathrm{C}kT}{h^2}\right
95     )^\frac{1}{2}\right ] \nonumber \\ &-& kT\ln \left [\frac{kT}{2(\pi
96     K_\omega K_\theta)^{\frac{1}{2}}}\exp\left
97     (-\frac{kT}{2K_\theta}\right)\int_0^{\left (\frac{kT}{2K_\theta}\right
98     )^\frac{1}{2}}\exp(t^2)\mathrm{d}t\right ],
99     \label{ecFreeEnergy}
100     \end{eqnarray}
101     where $2\pi\nu = (K_\mathrm{v}/m)^{1/2}$, and $E_m$ is the minimum
102     potential energy of the ideal crystal.\cite{Baez95a}

111     constants for the harmonic springs restraining motion in the $\theta$
112     and $\omega$ directions.}

116    
117     In the case of molecular liquids, the ideal vapor is chosen as the
118     target reference state. There are several examples of liquid state
119     free energy calculations of water models present in the
120     literature.\cite{Hermens88,Quintana92,Mezei92,Baez95b} These methods
121     typically differ in regard to the path taken for switching off the
122     interaction potential to convert the system to an ideal gas of water
123 chrisfen 1888 molecules. In this study, we applied one of the most convenient
124 chrisfen 1872 methods and integrated over the $\lambda^4$ path, where all
125     interaction parameters are scaled equally by this transformation
126     parameter. This method has been shown to be reversible and provide
127     results in excellent agreement with other established
128     methods.\cite{Baez95b}
129    
130     Charge, dipole, and Lennard-Jones interactions were modified by a
131     cubic switching between 100\% and 85\% of the cutoff value (9 \AA).
132     By applying this function, these interactions are smoothly truncated,
133     thereby avoiding the poor energy conservation which results from
134     harsher truncation schemes. The effect of a long-range correction was
135     also investigated on select model systems in a variety of manners.
136     For the SSD/RF model, a reaction field with a fixed dielectric
137     constant of 80 was applied in all simulations.\cite{Onsager36} For a
138     series of the least computationally expensive models (SSD/E, SSD/RF,
139     TIP3P, and SPC/E), simulations were performed with longer cutoffs of
140     10.5, 12, 13.5, and 15 \AA\ to compare with the 9 \AA\ cutoff results.
141 chrisfen 1888 Finally, the effects provided by an Ewald summation were estimated for
142 chrisfen 1872 TIP3P and SPC/E by performing single configuration calculations with
143     Particle-Mesh Ewald (PME) in the TINKER molecular mechanics software
144     package.\cite{Tinker} The calculated energy difference in the presence
145     and absence of PME was applied to the previous results in order to
146     predict changes to the free energy landscape.
147    
148 chrisfen 1879 Additionally, $g_{OO}(r)$ and $S(\vec{q})$ plots were generated for
149     the two Ice-{\it i} variants (along with example ice $I_h$ and $I_c$
150     plots) at 77K, and they are shown in figures \ref{fig:gofr} and
151     \ref{fig:sofq}. The $S(\vec{q})$ is related to a three dimensional
152     Fourier transform of the radial distribution function, which
153     simplifies to the following expression:
154    
155     \begin{equation}
156     S(q) = 1 + 4\pi\rho\int_{0}^{\infty} r^2 \frac{\sin kr}{kr}g_{OO}(r)dr,
157     \label{sofqEq}
158     \end{equation}
159    
160     where $\rho$ is the number density. To obtain a good estimation of
161     $S(\vec{q})$, $g_{OO}(r)$ needs to extend to large $r$ values. Thus,
162     simulations to obtain these plots were run on crystals eight times the
163     size of those used in the thermodynamic integrations.

171     simulations composed of TIP4P water.}
