[CP2K-user] AIMD for CO

Dear CP2K users,

Now I'm running the AIMD simulation for CO molecule at 300K under NVT
ensemble to calculate the time averaged energy. But I found the temperature
fluctuation is very large (even for 2ps), while the energy seems quite
converged. I attached part of my CO.ener file here and the end is my input
file. Is this case normal and can I use the averaged energy from the fifth
column? Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

Best regards,
Wanlu
