RE: AMBER: density

Hi Mathew,

In the constant volume calculations the density is not calculated and not
written to the output file. However if you are using my process_mdout.pl
script to extract information from the output file it extracts all potential
fields whether they are present in the output file or not. Thus if you are
running constant volume you will still get a density.dat file although it's
contents will be meaning less.

If you are not using this can you clarify what you mean by the density is
decreasing during the constant volume run? How are you calculating the
density?

All the best
Ross
