Advanced Langevin thermostats: Properties, extensions to rheology, and a lean momentum-conserving approach
read the original abstract
The Langevin equation accounts for unresolved bath degrees of freedom driving the system toward the bath temperature. Because of this, numerical solutions of the Langevin equation have a long history. Here, we recapitulate, combine, and extend existing Langevin-equation based thermostats, scrutinize their properties and demonstrate their superiority over global kinetic-energy controls. Our work includes compact, asymptotic-analysis based derivations of stochastic thermostats, including the highly accurate Gr{\o}nbech-Jensen scheme. Proposed extensions include a precise, colored and a lean, momentum-conserving thermostat.
