Dear Dr. Jason and Dr. Bill
Thanks for your reply.
But we are not agreed now. The same stuff appears in the papers published on the zinc ion. Some of them converted it and others didn't.
The stote's parameters are: sigma=1.95 and e=0.25
so, what exactly should I use in my frcmod file?
I need to know the correct value before starting my project.
thanks
Eliac
