Thanks a lot!
It says Nose-hoover coupling generates the correct canonical ensemble, and
that's the reason why I used it. I wonder whether v-rescale can also get
the
correct ensemble. Could you tell me?
As far as I know v-rescale should generate a correct ensemble.

Well, the thermostat author, who I happen to know, says it generates the
right ensemble. :) I'm not an expert so I can't say if it's true, but if
you like you can read the original papers, linked here:
