A deterministic thermostat for controlling temperature using all degrees of freedom

PK Patra, B Bhattacharya - The Journal of chemical physics, 2014 - pubs.aip.org
We propose a new thermostat that uses all the phase space variables for controlling
temperature and thus differs from the existing thermostats that control either the kinetic (eg …
