<strong>ASE</strong> <strong>Manual</strong>, <strong>Release</strong> 3.6.1.2828<br />

The -b option turns on plotting of bonds between the atoms. Check that the total energy is a conserved quantity<br />

in this microcanonical simulation.<br />

You can also use VMD to visualize the trajectory. To do this, you need a .xyz file that you can write using ag:<br />

$ ag si001+h2.traj -o si.xyz -r 2,2,1<br />

Then simply open the file using VMD:<br />

$ vmd si.xyz<br />

and set Graphics/Representations from the main menu in order to get a nice picture.<br />

You can also try to repeat the simulation with a different dynamics. For instance you can model a canonical<br />

ensemble with the Langevin dynamics, which couples the system to a heat bath:<br />

dyn = Langevin(atoms, 1 * fs, kB * 300, 0.002, trajectory=traj)<br />
