TEMPERED

NAME
TEMPERED - During a metadynamics simulation, adds an hill to the biasing potential with a decreasing probability.

SYNOPSIS
TEMPERED    $T^{\prime}$

DESCRIPTION
When present, the program adds an hill to the current biasing potential with a probability given by $P({\rm acc}) = \exp (- V_{{\rm max}}(t))/k_BT^{\prime}$, where $V_{\rm max}(t)$ is the maximum value of the potential $V(s,t)$ at time $t$ and $T^{\prime}$ is a user-defined temperature.

EXAMPLES
TEMPERED 1000.0
Run a tempered metadynamics simulation adding new potential terms with a probability that depends on the ratio $V_{\rm max}(t)/k_B*1000.0$.

DEFAULTS
$T^{\prime}$ 0.0
