temperature in two groups of atoms

Hello Fernan,

you can try by defining thermal regions in the MD section, like

    TEMPERATURE 300.0


    TEMP_KIND


    &THERMAL_REGION

      &DEFINE_REGION

        TEMPERATURE  300

        TEMP_TOL  100

@include list_of_atoms.inc

      &END

      &DEFINE_REGION

        TEMPERATURE  10000000

        LIST  4211

      &END

You need the TEMP_TOL though to keep the temperature of the subsection of 
atoms.
If I am not wrong, it is not possible to set a proper thermostat for one 
defined region alone.

Kind regards
Marcella
