Figure 4.

Performances of the three modified switching protocols for a subset of the compounds. Results for the direct NEW switching protocols MM → SQM are shown as red circles; the results for calculations using the MULL(solv) hybrid charge intermediate state are blue squares. The fill color of the circles/squares indicates the stepwise linear switching protocol used (green = L2-1, orange = L3-1 and salmon = L3-2). For comparison purposes, the MM/JAR(2ps) (red circles) and MULL(solv) results (blue squares), both using the default switching protocol L1, are included as well.
