In doing this, the contribution of all the other degrees of freedom (\"microscopic\" variables) is averaged out and, thus, lost. In the following, it is shown that it is possible to calculate the thermal average of these microscopic degrees of freedom during the metadynamics, not loosing this piece of information.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-11-19T18:03:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05.10.-a" ], "keywords": [ "microscopic averages", "metadynamics", "estimation", "systems displaying high energy barriers", "microscopic degrees" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "European Physical Journal B", "year": 2008, "month": "May", "volume": 63, "number": 2, "pages": 235 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008EPJB...63..235T" } } }
