[CP2K-user] [CP2K:12719] Thermostat individual molecules

[Thomas Kühne]

Dear Chase, 

IMHO there are two ways to do that: 
(i) use THERMOSTAT/DEFINE_REGION to thermostat your surface. However, in that 
case you have to specify SUBSYS/VELOCITIES to assign the velocities of your 
molecule by hand or restarting them … 
(ii) Use MD/THERMAL_REGION/DEFINE_REGION, to define the surface AND your 
molecule, as well as their respective temeratures. However, this way you can only 
specify LAGEVIN for the surface and NVE for the molecule, which should be good enough. 

Cheers, 
Thomas
