 Concerning temperature control, in these exercises we will use the NOSE-HOOVER chains method. This has been briefly described in the lecture, and is presented in [[doi>10.1063/1.463940|this paper]] by Glenn Martyna (1992). Concerning temperature control, in these exercises we will use the NOSE-HOOVER chains method.
