[gmx-users] how many groups shall I use to control the temperature?

[陈功]

Thanks a lot, Justin. I do CG simulation using Martini force field. So maybe I can find some useful infomation on the forum of martini.
Thanks :)

It is said that two groups are more accurate but when when i split them into two groups "Protein nonProtein", I found that fluctulation of temperature in group "Protein" are obvious, Im afraid that would have an effect on accuracy on my simulation results. So how many groups shall I use to control the temperature?
 
What protocol is used in published studies similar to what you're doing?  Small 
groups will have larger fluctuations in temperature, that's a given.  I don't do 
CG simulations, so I don't know how such groups are commonly treated.
