Dear CP2K community, <div><br></div><div>Is it possible to define multiple thermostats (e.g. CSVR) in different regions at different temperatures? I am aware of the <a href="https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-5_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/MOTION/MD/THERMAL_REGION.html">THERMAL_REGION</a>s feature (which *almost* does exactly what I want), however this simply applies a velocity rescaling procedure to a target temperature, which does not reproduce the NVT ensemble. (I have also seen previous threads e.g. https://groups.google.com/g/cp2k/c/1CONwFgxp64/m/4Ui0S6FUBHUJ which suggest this is not possible, but these are more than 10 years old so I was wondering if there has been an update)<br><div><br></div><div>I'm trying to simulate a temperature gradient for MD simulations. I would like to define two "bath" regions with proper NVT thermostatting at temperatures T1 and T2 respectively, while the rest of the system will undergo NVE dynamics, allowing a temperature gradient to build up naturally. </div><div><br></div><div>Many thanks, </div><div><br></div><div>Jan</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>
