Marcella,

Are you referring to the cp2k section ROTATIONAL_INFO
<https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-8_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/MOTION/MD/PRINT/ROTATIONAL_INFO.html>
 ?
If so, I was afraid I didn't consider the section.

Here is my simulation output on calculation of degrees of freedom.

 DOF| Calculation of degrees of freedom
 DOF| Number of atoms
 100
 DOF| Number of intramolecular constraints                           0
 DOF| Number of intermolecular constraints                           0
 DOF| Invariants (translations + rotations)                               3
 DOF| Degrees of freedom
 297

The number of the translational and rotational degrees of freedom seem to
be  3×(100-1) = 297, 0×(100-0) = 0.

I calculated the temperature considering the number of translational
degrees of freedom (3) '1/2*m*v^2 = 3/2*kb*T'.
However I didn't consider the number of rotational degrees of freedom
because it seemed to be 0.

Kind regards
Matsuo
