[CP2K:6374] FES for metadynamics in polar coordinates

[Teodoro Laino]

if I understand correctly your question.. the answer is no: fes does not do this automatically.. but you can always post-process the cartesian grid into whatever other system of coordinates you like. 

Still, I do not understand why the shape of the two (cartesian VS spherical) will be different.. think of the function:

SQRT(x^2+y^2)=1

the curve is identical if you plot it in the x,y coordinate system or in the polar (r, theta) one..

If you think of some way of separating the wells (based on your current results), very probably you’ll have to re-define the CV space and this cannot be done at posteriori..

Is it possible to use the fes.sopt to plot in polar coordinates?
