Partial Charges

Hello All,

How are partial charges calculated when selected from atom properties? Are they Gasteiger-Marsili charges?

Thanks.

How are partial charges calculated when selected from atom properties? Are they Gasteiger-Marsili charges?

Yes. We’ve discussed adding an option to select different charge models, but for now the default is Gasteiger-Marsili sigma charges.

Hope that helps,
