Lire la suite >This paper has to be intended both as a review and as an historical tribute to the ideas developed almost forty years ago by S. Nosé establishing the theoretical foundations of the implementation and use of thermostats in molecular dynamics. The original motivation of this work is enriched by an observation related to the connection between the Nosé seminal expression of temperature control and the extension proposed in 1985 by W. G. Hoover, known as the Nosé‐Hoover thermostat. By carefully rederiving the equations of motion in both formalisms, it appears that all features of Nosé‐Hoover framework (replacement of the Nosé variables by a single friction coefficient in the equations of motion) are already built in the Nosé approach. Therefore, one is able to work directly within the Nosé formalism with the addition of a single variable only, by greatly extending its general impact and simplicity and somewhat making redundant the Nosé‐Hoover extension. Having been implicitly (and somewhat inadvertently) put to good use by a multitude of users over the past 40 years (in the context of classical and first‐principles molecular dynamics), this finding does not need any specific application to be assessed.
