[CP2K-user] [CP2K:18567] Re: Problem with meta-dynamic simulation

[Marcella Iannuzzi]

Dear ...

These are quite general questions about metadynamics, not specifically 
related to cp2k.
My first suggestion is that you refer to reviews, tutorials, books about 
the method in general, before starting using it.

1 and 2 are strongly system dependent and the usual advise is to learn the 
behaviour of the system by running molecular dynamics and monitoring the 
fluctuations of the variables of interest.
Number 3 is wrongly posed. Once convergence is reached, the relative 
differences in free energies should not change anymore.

Regards
Marcella
