Dr. Case,
Thank you.
In my disappearing vdw simulations,1-4 EEL is indeed zero. In my
charging simulation in solvent, I happened looking up the md.output file
of
clambda=0.5. So that's why 1-4 EEL is not zero yet.
Thank you,
ThuZar

I agree that this sounds suspicious, but can't really say more. Are you
sure
that the charges are zero in both states? My toluene -> nothing runs
(i.e.
where the charges are already zeroed and I am just changing the vdW
radii)
indeed show 1-4 electrostatics as zero, as expected. So you should
check
carefully you results: run a short simulation at both lambda=0 and
lambda=1 to
make sure the end points are doing what you expect, etc.
...good luck...dac
