Energy Minimization

X-PLOR provides two options to minimize the total energy $E_{TOTAL}$ (Chapter 4). The conjugate gradient minimizer uses the Cartesian coordinates as variables. The rigid-body minimizer uses the rotational and translational degrees of freedom for specified rigid groups of the molecule.
