[QE-users] Blue moon ensemble calculations in quantum espresso

2022-12-12 Thread Payal Chaudhary
Dear all, I had a question about running blue moon calculations with Quantum Espresso. To get the free energy profile along a reaction coordinate, we can run several constrained MD calculations and use the blue moon ensemble averages to get free energy gradients. These gradients can then be int

Payal, It is possible to use QE with PLUMED and then to apply PLUMED recipes: https://www.plumed.org Recently blue-moon sampling has been done with PLUMED combined together with other DFT codes: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11244-021-01516-y The last time I used PLUMED 1.x in QE 5.2 (2016) to perf
