水:一个分子,两个表面,一个错误

Water: one molecule, two surfaces, one mistake

Carlos Vega

摘要:

为了精确地计算分子的能量和偶极矩,需要求解薛定谔方程。对许多不同的构型重复这一过程,可以确定势能面(PES)和偶极矩面(DMS)。自从早期的计算机模拟,它已被隐含地接受的经验电位的电荷用于适应PES也应该被用来描述DMS。这是个错误部分费用是不可观测的量。它们应被视为可调拟合参数。用于描述生态系统服务质量的最佳值不一定是描述管理系统服务质量的最佳值。可以使用两个拟合:一个用于PES,另一个用于DMS。这是量子化学界的一种常见做法,但在进行计算机模拟的社区中并不经常使用。这个想法影响了所有类型的水模型(从头计算除外),从粗粒到非极化和极化模型。我们预计,一个领域,将大大受益于有两个,一个良好的PES和一个良好的DMS,是水在电场的存在下建模。

英文摘要:

In order to rigorously evaluate the energy and dipole moment of a certain configuration of molecules one needs to solve the Schrödinger equation. Repeating this for many different configurations allows one to determine the potential energy surface (PES) and the dipole moment surface (DMS). Since the early days of computer simulation it has been implicitly accepted that for empirical potentials the charges used to fit the PES should also be used to describe the DMS. This is a mistake. Partial charges are not observable magnitudes. They should be regarded as adjustable fitting parameters. Optimal values used to describe the PES are not necessarily the best to describe the DMS. One could use two fits: one for the PES, and another for the DMS. This is a common practice in the quantum chemistry community, but not used so often by the community performing computer simulations. This idea affects all types of modelling of water (with the exception of ab-initio calculations) from coarse grained to non-polarizable and polarizable models. We anticipate that an area that will benefit dramatically from having both, a good PES and a good DMS, is the modelling of water in the presence of electric fields.
