+In applying this water model in these types of systems, it would be
+useful to know its properties and behavior with the more
+computationally efficient reaction field (RF) technique, and even with
+a cutoff that lacks any form of long range correction. This study
+addresses these issues by looking at the structural and transport
+behavior of SSD over a variety of temperatures, with the purpose of
+utilizing the RF correction technique. Towards the end, we suggest
+alterations to the parameters that result in more water-like
+behavior. It should be noted that in a recent publication, some the
+original investigators of the SSD water model have put forth
+adjustments to the original SSD water model to address abnormal
+density behavior (also observed here), calling the corrected model
+SSD1.\cite{Ichiye03} This study will consider this new model's
+behavior as well, and hopefully improve upon its depiction of water
+under conditions without the Ewald Sum.
