Re: [ESPResSo-users] Fwd: Error regarding rotational diffusion

[Nairhita Samanta]

Hi all!

Thank you for your reply. I wanted to let you know I have enabled all of the following "LANGEVIN_PER_PARTICLE, ROTATION, ROTATION_PER_PARTICLE". Are you suggesting to switch off "ROTATION_PER_PARTICLE" as Henri Manke suggested that it is enabled by default "ROTATION". However even in that case, Espresso cannot recognize "gamma_rot", which is required to set individual rotational diffusivity.

Regards,

Nairhita

Dear All,

I agree with Rudolf. However, if you are using active particles, as I suspect you are, based on your last arxiv submission, you cannot use the pressure calculation at all — see the extensive literature on “swim pressure”. 

Best Wishes,

Joost

To my understanding, this error message should be removed, since the ideal gas pressure is not influenced by the particles' angular velocities.
