✦ Synopsis


A computer code was prepared for the molecular dynamics MD simulation of a multimolecular system to atomic resolution. Based on a widely ãccepted force field and aided by simulated annealing of single molecules, V ãnd E were computed for ortho-terphenyl and 1,3,5-tri-␣-naphthyl benzene across an extended range of temperatures. Although neither the simulation time Ž . Ž . 40᎐100 ps nor the system size 27 and 64 molecules appeared to affect the computational results to an appreciable extent, it was clear that a longer simulation time or a larger system tended to yield a more consistent set of data.
