Dear All,
I am trying to study protein adsorption on metal surface in vacuum in NAMD.
I am getting almost double the adsorption energies values as that in
explicit water and DFT studies.
I am not sure if there is a different method to treat electrostatics and
van der Waal forces in vacuum. I am using PME off and a cutoff of 12 A for
45X45X45 A box.
Please advise as to how should I modify the vacuum simulations to get
better results in namd?

Thanks and Regards
Madhulika
