RandomVelocityTemp
RandomVelocityTemp
Section System::Velocities
Type float
Default 0.0
If this variable is present, Octopus will assign random
velocities to the atoms following a Boltzmann distribution with
temperature given by RandomVelocityTemp (in degrees Kelvin).
The seed for the random number generator can be modified by setting
GSL_RNG_SEED environment variable.
