GMX-ORDER(1) GROMACS GMX-ORDER(1) NAME gmx-order - Compute the order parameter per atom for carbon tails SYNOPSIS gmx order [-f [<.xtc/.trr/...>]] [-n [<.ndx>]] [-nr [<.ndx>]] [-s [<.tpr>]] [-o [<.xvg>]] [-od [<.xvg>]] [-ob [<.pdb>]] [-os [<.xvg>]] [-Sg [<.xvg>]] [-Sk [<.xvg>]] [-Sgsl [<.xvg>]] [-Sksl [<.xvg>]] [-b <time>] [-e <time>] [-dt <time>] [-[no]w] [-xvg <enum>] [-d <enum>] [-sl <int>] [-[no]szonly] [-[no]permolecule] [-[no]radial] [-[no]calcdist] DESCRIPTION gmx order computes the order parameter per atom for carbon tails. For atom i the vector i-1, i+1 is used together with an axis. The index file should contain only the groups to be used for calculations, with each group of equivalent carbons along the relevant acyl chain in its own group. There should not be any generic groups (like System, Pro- tein) in the index file to avoid confusing the program (this is not relevant to tetrahedral order parameters however, which only work for water anyway). gmx order can also give all diagonal elements of the order tensor and even calculate the deuterium order parameter Scd (default). If the op- tion -szonly is given, only one order tensor component (specified by the -d option) is given and the order parameter per slice is calculated as well. If -szonly is not selected, all diagonal elements and the deu- terium order parameter is given. The tetrahedrality order parameters can be determined around an atom. Both angle an distance order parameters are calculated. See P.-L. Chau and A.J. Hardwick, Mol. Phys., 93, (1998), 511-518. for more details.

(axis can be specified with -d) -[no]permolecule (no) Compute per-molecule Scd order parameters -[no]radial (no) Compute a radial membrane normal -[no]calcdist (no) Compute distance from a reference KNOWN ISSUES • This tool only works for saturated carbons and united atom force fields. • For anything else, it is highly recommended to use a different analy- sis method! • The option -unsat claimed to do analysis for unsaturated carbons • this but hasn't worked ever since it was added and has thus been re- moved.
