The programs in this directory were written by Uwe Hollerbach uhollerbach@norfolk-county.com or uwe@aix550.phys.rush.edu and are based on programs written by Wolfgang Nonner wnonner@chroma.med.miami.edu of the Dept of Biophysics and Physiology at the University of Miami used in the paper "Ion Permeation and Glutamate Residues Linked by Poisson-Nernst Planck Theory in L-Type Calcium Channels" which is supposed to appear in the Sept. 1998 issue of Biophysical Journal. The code should compile easily in any C compiler. The code is based on a program for PNP with with spatially varying dielectric coefficient, diffusion coefficient, and cross sectional area written by Duan Chen sometime ago, Another version of this program has been written by Wolfgang Nonner, in ANSI C, and can be found in the directory, Eisenberg/Nonner on this server, namely, ftp.rush.edu We hope you find this code helpful Ever yours, Bob Eisenberg beisenbe@rush.edu August 18, 1998
