Justin,

Could you tell me for what purposes the definition of the several ref_t values could be usefull? Does this just for measurements of the temperature during simulation for each group separately or is there something else?


Each ref_t value is the target temperature for however many groups you have assigned to separate thermostats.


By the way as I've found in literature another important question about such simulation in high temperature conditions is the selection of the integrator algorithm wich also could enhanse sampling under this conditions. E.g I've found that the BD integrator could be more usefull than leap-frog MD. What timestep and other importnat options defined in mdp should be tken into account within simulation with BD ? I've never perform simulations with this integrator and could not realise how it could enhanse simulation rate in comparison to the MD and what artifacts should expect from that :)



I have never used the bd integrator so I cannot offer any help here. I don't see any magical reason why you should expect it to enhance sampling though.
