Dear All,
I have recently started a MD calculation in DFTB+ but there are certain
numbers which I can't apprehend.
In my input file I have specified the MD time step of 0.48 fs and the
temperature as 2500 K, however, the
program processing file reads:
Starting initialization...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mode: MD without scaling of velocities
(a.k.a. NVE ensemble)
Self consistent charges: No
Spin polarisation: No
Nr. of up electrons: 420.000000
Nr. of down electrons: 420.000000
Periodic boundaries: No
Diagonalizer: Standard
Electronic temperature: 0.158341E-01
Time step: 0.198439E+02 (????)
Temperature: 0.791704E-02 (????)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why are those numbers (shown in (????)) different from my input
description, shown below:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Driver = VelocityVerlet {
Steps = 300
TimeStep [Femtosecond] = 0.48
Thermostat = None {
InitialTemperature [Kelvin] = 2500.00
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Am I missing something.
Regards
Debasis
