The '''Andersen thermostat''' (Ref. 1) should only be used for time-independent properties. Dynamic properties, such as the [[diffusion]], should not be calculated if the system is thermostated using the Andersen algorithm (Ref. 2)

This article is a 'stub' page, it has no, or next to no, content. It is here at the moment to help form part of the structure of SklogWiki. If you add sufficient material to this article then please remove the {{Stub-general}} template from this page.

The Andersen thermostat (Ref. 1) should only be used for time-independent properties. Dynamic properties, such as the diffusion, should not be calculated if the system is thermostated using the Andersen algorithm (Ref. 2)
