Few questions from a beginner

[Chetan Mahajan]

Hello Friends

I am new to cp2k or any quantum calculations, carrying out Born-Oppenheimer
molecular dynamics simulations of water solvated acid-base polymer systems.
I have some questions on our first output:

1. Any good reference which would explain all the terms in cp2k output? I
have Essentials of Computational Chemistry by Cramer and it is pretty good,
but it does not use same or all the terms as cp2k output, so it is
confusing for a beginner like me.

2. For a classically MD equilibrated input to AIMD, initial energy is
-3128.122 H, but for a random, non-equilibrated input (which by the way was
my input to classical MD equilibration) to AIMD, initial energy is
-3129.058 H. My question is why is energy decreasing for a non-equilibrated
system?  I understand we are dealing with ground-states only, but shouldn't
quantum mechanical energy be higher if system is not classically
equilibrated in general? Is this pointing to any error?

Thanks
Chetan
