Abstract :
An investigation of the Ewald method is presented. The method involves a splitting parameter that is theoretically an arbitrary number. An analysis is presented to show why the splitting parameter cannot always be treated as arbitrary in calculations and how this parameter should be chosen for all periodic spacing of a structure
