What it does
The Radial Distribution Function (RDF), g(r), also called pair distribution function or pair correlation function, can be used to find how density varies as a function of distance from a reference atom.
Input
- Trajectory file (DCD).
- PDB file.
- Segment IDs, residue IDs and names of two atoms to calculate RDF values.
Note that a MDAnalysis 'segment' is a larger organizational unit, for example one protein or all the solvent molecules or simply the whole system.
Output
- Tab-separated file of raw data of the RDF.
- Image (as png) of the RDF plot.
