Masses are passed correctly

PLUMED must receive the masses from an MD code in order to calculate many CVs correctly. To test that masses are passed correctly to PLUMED we run a short trajectory and output the masses of all the atoms that are passed to PLUMED using the following command:

Results

The table below includes some of the results from the calculation. The columns contain:

  1. The masses that were obtained from the MD code, $x_{md}$.
  2. The masses that were obtained from PLUMED, $x_{pl}$.
  3. The tolerances that were used when comparing these quantities, $\delta$.
  4. The values of $100\frac{\vert x_{md} - x_{pl}\vert }{\delta}$.

If the PLUMED interface is working correctly the first two sets of numbers should be identical and the final column should be filled with zeros.
