AMBER: parameter meaning

I find, in file "frcmod.pol3", the following parameters for the POL3 model

NONBON
  OW 1.798 0.156
  HW 0.0 0.0

My guess is 1.798 = Rmin/2, 0.156 = -Emin, where Rmin and Emin
are defined in the following expression for the van der Waals interaction

    vdw(r) = (-Emin) ( (Rmin/r)^12 - (Rmin/r)^6 ) .

Could someone confirm this ?

Thanks.

Wei
