SPHERE_SAMPLING

Specifies the parameter for sampling the RESP fitting points for molecular structures, i.e. systems that do not involve surfaces. Fitting points are sampled in spheres around the atom. All grid points in the shell defined by rmin and rmax are accepted for fitting. Default is that rmin is the vdW radius and rmax=100.0*vdW_radius, which can be overwritten by the keywords below.

Keyword descriptions

AUTO_RMAX_SCALE: real = 1.00000000E+002

Usage: AUTO_RMAX_SCALE 60.0

Mentions: ⭐RESP Charges

IF RMAX or RMAX_KIND keywords are not present, defines the maximumn distance a fit point is away from an atom based on the formula: rmax(kind) = AUTO_RMAX_SCALE * vdW_radius(kind). The van der Waals radiii of the elements are based on data from table chosen by AUTO_VDW_RADII_TABLE. [Edit on GitHub]

AUTO_RMIN_SCALE: real = 1.00000000E+000

Usage: AUTO_RMIN_SCALE 1.5

Mentions: ⭐RESP Charges

IF RMIN or RMIN_KIND keywords are not present, defines the minimum distance a fit point is away from an atom based on the formula: rmin(kind) = AUTO_RMIN_SCALE * vdW_radius(kind). The van der Waals radii of the elements are based on data from table chosen by AUTO_VDW_RADII_TABLE. [Edit on GitHub]
