GMX-SAXS-LEGACY(1)

NAME
gmx-saxs-legacy - Compute small angle X-ray scattering spectra

SYNOPSIS

    gmx saxs-legacy [-f [<.xtc/.trr/...>]] [-s [<.tpr/.gro/...>]]
                 [-n [<.ndx>]] [-d [<.dat>]] [-sq [<.xvg>]] [-b <time>]
                 [-e <time>] [-dt <time>] [-xvg <enum>] [-ng <int>]
                 [-startq <real>] [-endq <real>] [-energy <real>]

DESCRIPTION

gmx saxs-legacy calculates SAXS structure factors for given index groups based on Cromer's method. Both topology and trajectory files are required.

OPTIONS

Options to specify input files:

-n [<.ndx>] (index.ndx) (Optional)
    Index file

-d [<.dat>] (sfactor.dat) (Optional)
    Generic data file

    Options to specify output files:

-dt <time> (0)
    Only use frame when t MOD dt = first time (default unit ps)

-xvg <enum> (xmgrace)
    xvg plot formatting: xmgrace, xmgr, none
