Hi Brian,

Thanks for your response.

I explicitly imported the parameters from frcmod.ionsjc_tip4pew in my leap
script, so I know that they are being used. Unfortunately, I did not take
the time to investigate this reference when I started the simulations, and
it is only now that I realize I cannot give a citation for the sodium ion
polarizability.

Lars
