Dear users,
 
I am rather new to AMBER and molecular dynamics and
was wondering how accurate the timestep used in AMBER
is.
 
If you carry out a 1 ns simulation, does this really
represent 1 ns in the real world? If not, how accurate
is simulated time? Are there any papers you can
recommend on this subject.
 
Thanking you in advance,
 
Darren Davies, PhD
