Dear Carlos Simmerling.
Thank you for a reply.
Since our customer's permission is required,
it is very difficult to offer raw input file.
I am very sorry.
-About your proposal
Although I performed calculation using various
value for a coupling constant, I failed.
I think that there is another problem against
coupling constant one. So I will continue
the investigation about this problem.
Since I think I won't get more information about
this problem, I want to finish this discussion
here. If there is an opinion about this problem,
please send it to my E-mail address.
If this cause and solution are found, I will write again.
Thanks.
