Shifted potential

The shift makes the potential deviate from the true potential, and so any calculated thermodynamic properties will be changed. The true values can be retrieved but it is difficult to do so, and the shifted potential is thus rarely used in real simulations. Moreover, while it is relatively straightforward to implement for a homogeneous system under the influence of a simple potential such as the Lennard-jones potential, it is not easy for inhomogeneous systems containing rnany different types of atom. 

HyperChem also provides a shifting potential for terminating nonbonded interactions (equation 15). 

In an attempt to remedy truncation problems, a shifting potential multiplies the nonbonded electrostatic potential by a function that goes to zero. That is, the potential is shifted to zero at the cutoff Roff. Unlike the switching function, the shifted potential does not apply to van der Waals interactions. 

Risk-shifting potential—the contract must provide the ability tor those with price risk in the underlying item to shift that risk to a market participant willing to accept It. In the energy world, commercial producers, traders, refiners, distributors and consumers need to be able to plan ahead, and frequently enter into commitments to buy or sell energy commodities many months in advance. 

The RMS displacement as a function of time for the shifted potential simulations are shown in Figure 3. As expected for this functional form, the longer cutoff distances result in a smaller RMS deviation from X-ray. The results for the 100 picosecond analysis section of all of the simulations are summarized in Table IV. For Table IV, the term "rdie" indicates that a distant dependant dielectric was used, cdie indicates that a constant dielectric was used, and eps2 indicates that the electrostatic forces have been scaled by 0.5.

Conclusions. For the "shifted" potential, the deviations are too large, but the fluctuations are good at longer cutoff distances.

The UPD of Zn + on Au(lll), Au(lOO), and Au(llO) was studied in phosphate buffer with addition of NaCl04 and NaCl [200]. The apparent number of electrons transferred in the UPD process was nearly one, irrespective of the single-crystal face. Although UPD shift potential ATp was independent of the kind of solutions, the CV characteristics were altered in different solutions. In NaCl solutions, two UPD peaks appeared in contrast to the case of phosphate and perchlorate solutions.

Another interesting property of expanded radialenes is their strong ability to accommodate electrons upon reduction, as revealed by an electrochemical study by Gross, Gisselbrecht, and Boudon [29d]. Thus, in all three series, the first reduction occurred at anodically shifted potentials relative to the reference TEE dimers the following shifts were observed +170-440 mV for 29a-c relative to 19, +210-330 mV for 30a,b relative to 23, and +240-320 mV for 28a-c relative to 21 (Figure 9). Thus, the radical anions of expanded radialenes are very stable, particularly those of the expanded [3]- and [4]radialenes, whatever the nature of the substituents. 

CRAMPS NMR [138]. The differences in the intermolecular distances of the carboxylic acid groups involved in different types of hydrogen bonding have been visualised using ODESSA (one-dimensional exchange spectroscopy by sideband alteration) and 2D EXSY (exchange spectroscopy). The ODESSA technique [139] can measure internuclear distances (up to 9 A) between chemically equivalent nuclei with the same isotropic chemical shift. Potential applications of this approach are widespread.

Enhanced scattering in the Qj band may also result from interference between the FC scattering of totally symmetric modes with shifted potentials and HT scattering by the non-totally symmetric mode concerned. 44)... 

A cutoff introduces a discontinuity in both the potential energy and the force near the cutoff value. This creates problems, especially in molecular d5mamics simulations where energy conservation is required. There are several ways that the effects of this discontinuity can be counteracted. One approach is to use a shifted potential, in which a constant term is subtracted from the potential at all values (Figure 6.18) ... 

The most important result is the significant and reproducible shift of the corrosion potential, mainly together with a decrease in specific corrosion current (or decreased gradient angle of the current curve). Figure 11.57 shows the shifted potential for polyaniline coated metals of which the original corrosion potential/ current curve is to be seen in the same figure.
