Hi,
How are the relaxation times for the NoseThermostat and the
AndersenBarostat related to the parameters W_S and W_V (Kneller et al.,
Phys. Rev. E, 54, 6825 (1996)), respectively?
Are the related in the following way?
Thermostat:
W_S = 3*N*k_B*Temp*(rexalation time)**2,
where N is the number of atoms in the system.
Barostat:
W_V = [P_ext*(relaxation time)**2]/(some reference length)**3
Kind regards
Andreas
