A correction into "Theoretical prediction of the trigger linkage, cage strain and explosive sensitivity of CL-20 in the external electric fields".

In order to obtain the more reliable impact sensitivities of CL-20 in the external electric fields, the calculation scheme for the sensitivities shown in the paper published in Journal of Molecular Modeling (entitled "Theoretical prediction of the trigger linkage, cage strain and explosive sensitivity of CL-20 in the external electric fields") was re-evaluated. We found that the model with the averages of the surface electrostatic potentials (ESPs) ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]) may be more suitable for predicting the impact sensitivity of the cage-shaped CL-20 than those containing the variabilities of the surface ESPs ([Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]) or the balance of charges (ν).
