<h2>Description<a class="headerlink" href="#description" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Define a computation that calculates the temperature of a system based
on the center-of-mass velocity of atom pairs that are bonded to each
other. This compute is designed to be used with the adiabatic
core/shell model of <a class="reference internal" href="pair_cs.html#mitchellfinchham"><span>(Mitchell and Finchham)</span></a>. See
<a class="reference internal" href="Section_howto.html#howto-25"><span>Section_howto 25</span></a> of the manual for an
overview of the model as implemented in LAMMPS. Specifically, this
compute enables correct temperature calculation and thermostatting of
core/shell pairs where it is desirable for the internal degrees of
freedom of the core/shell pairs to not be influenced by a thermostat.
A compute of this style can be used by any command that computes a
temperature via <a class="reference internal" href="fix_modify.html"><em>fix_modify</em></a> e.g. <a class="reference internal" href="fix_temp_rescale.html"><em>fix temp/rescale</em></a>, <a class="reference internal" href="fix_nh.html"><em>fix npt</em></a>, etc.</p>
<p>For this compute, core and shell particles are specified by two
respective group IDs, which can be defined using the
<a class="reference internal" href="group.html"><em>group</em></a> command. The number of atoms in the two groups
must be the same and there should be one bond defined between a pair
of atoms in the two groups.</p>
<p>The temperature is calculated by the formula KE = dim/2 N k T, where
KE = total kinetic energy of the group of atoms (sum of 1/2 m v^2),
dim = 2 or 3 = dimensionality of the simulation, N = number of atoms
in the group, k = Boltzmann constant, and T = temperature. Note that
the velocity of each core or shell atom used in the KE calculation is
the velocity of the center-of-mass (COM) of the core/shell pair the
atom is part of. Note that atoms that are not core or shell particles
are also included in the temperature calculation (if they are in the
specified group-ID); they contribute to the total kinetic energy in
the usual way.</p>
<p>A kinetic energy tensor, stored as a 6-element vector, is also
calculated by this compute for use in the computation of a pressure
tensor. The formula for the components of the tensor is the same as
the above formula, except that v^2 is replaced by vx*vy for the xy
component, etc. The 6 components of the vector are ordered xx, yy,
zz, xy, xz, yz. Again, the velocity of each core or shell atom is its
COM velocity.</p>
<p>The change this fix makes to core/shell atom velocities is essentially
computing the temperature after a &#8220;bias&#8221; has been removed from the
velocity of the atoms. This &#8220;bias&#8221; is the velocity of the atom
relative to the COM velocity of the core/shell pair. If this compute
is used with a fix command that performs thermostatting then this bias
will be subtracted from each atom, thermostatting of the remaining COM
velocity will be performed, and the bias will be added back in. This
means the thermostating will effectively be performed on the
core/shell pairs, instead of on the individual core and shell atoms.
Thermostatting fixes that work in this way include <a class="reference internal" href="fix_nh.html"><em>fix nvt</em></a>, <a class="reference internal" href="fix_temp_rescale.html"><em>fix temp/rescale</em></a>, <a class="reference internal" href="fix_temp_berendsen.html"><em>fix temp/berendsen</em></a>, and <a class="reference internal" href="fix_langevin.html"><em>fix langevin</em></a>.</p>
<p>The internal energy of core/shell pairs can be calculated by the
<a class="reference internal" href="compute_temp_chunk.html"><em>compute temp/chunk</em></a> command, if chunks are
defined as core/shell pairs. See <a class="reference internal" href="Section_howto.html#howto-25"><span>Section_howto 25</span></a> for more discussion on how to do this.</p>
<p><strong>Output info:</strong></p>
<p>This compute calculates a global scalar (the temperature) and a global
vector of length 6 (KE tensor), which can be accessed by indices 1-6.
These values can be used by any command that uses global scalar or
vector values from a compute as input.</p>
<p>The scalar value calculated by this compute is &#8220;intensive&#8221;. The
vector values are &#8220;extensive&#8221;.</p>
<p>The scalar value will be in temperature <a class="reference internal" href="units.html"><em>units</em></a>. The
vector values will be in energy <a class="reference internal" href="units.html"><em>units</em></a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="restrictions">
<h2>Restrictions<a class="headerlink" href="#restrictions" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>The number of core/shell pairs contributing to the temperature is
assumed to be constant for the duration of the run. No fixes should
be used which generate new molecules or atoms during a simulation.</p>
