QM/MM: Heating<br />

– Hea4ng of the system up to room temperature <br />

– The system is coupled to a thermostat <br />

• e.g. Berendsen-­‐type thermostat <br />

(gentler than the TEMPCONTROL mechanism („scaling“) to thermalize a system, <br />

but not usable for produc4on runs as the Berendsen scheme does not represent <br />

any defined sta4s4cal ensemble (use Nose-­‐Hoover instead)).<br />
