 In the previous sections, you have already run NVE ensemble molecular dynamics calculations for liquid Ar. In this section, we will focus on the NVT ensembles.  In the previous sections, you have already run NVE ensemble molecular dynamics calculations for liquid Ar.

-Although the most popular Nose-Hoover thermostat is used in other MD codes, the original Nose-Hoover thermostat has an ergodic issue. This has been solved by Mark Tuckerman et al.
