 Perform a simulation at T=1100 K and T=1300 K (files: 1100.inp and 1300.inp). Perform a simulation at T=1100 K and T=1300 K (files: 1100.inp and 1300.inp).
  
 +<note important>Discuss the differences in the density profile. What do you expect to see in vmd?

 +Now, use vmd to look at the trajectories. As you launch vmd, 
 +you can (assignment):
  
 +  <note important>- source a pbc.vmd file which includes the definition of the periodic box
 +  - draw the box: **draw pbcbox** in the Tk console
 +  - wrap all atoms in the periodic box: **pbc wrap -first first -last last**
 +  - "play" with representations: try to color the surface atoms in one color, the bulk ones in another color.
 +  - Using the "radial distribution function" plugin from the extension menu, draw the g(r) of the system. Discuss it for 700, 1100, and 1300 K.
