16 <p>
17 g_rotacf calculates the rotational correlation function
18 for molecules. Three atoms (i,j,k) must be given in the index
19 file, defining two vectors ij and jk. The rotational acf
20 is calculated as the autocorrelation function of the vector
21 n = ij x jk, i.e. the cross product of the two vectors.
22 Since three atoms span a plane, the order of the three atoms
23 does not matter. Optionally, controlled by the -d switch, you can
24 calculate the rotational correlation function for linear molecules
25 by specifying two atoms (i,j) in the index file.

27 EXAMPLES<p>
28 g_rotacf -P 1 -nparm 2 -fft -n index -o rotacf-x-P1
29 -fa expfit-x-P1 -beginfit 2.5 -endfit 20.0<p>
30 This will calculate the rotational correlation function using a first
31 order Legendre polynomial of the angle of a vector defined by the index
32 file. The correlation function will be fitted from 2.5 ps till 20.0 ps
33 to a two parameter exponential.
