Ab initio MD: CPMD<br />
• Energies <br />
Conserved total energy<br />
Physical total energy<br />
(EHAM)<br />
(ECLASSIC)<br />
Electronic (potential) energy: oscillatory (EKS)<br />
Fictitious kinetic energy of the electrons:<br />
bound oscillations around a constant value,<br />
i.e. the electrons do not heat up (T e = measure<br />
for the deviation from the BO surface) (EKINC)<br />
Restrictions of CP MD:<br />
• Number of atoms ≈ 100 – 1000<br />
• Δt ≈ 0.1 fs<br />
• t ≈ few tens of ps
