Thermostated Hamiltonian Dynamics with Log Oscillators
With this work, we present two new methods for the generation of thermostatted, manifestly Hamiltonian dynamics and provide corresponding illustrations. The basis for this new class of thermostats is the peculiar thermodynamics as exhibited by logarithmic oscillators. These two schemes are best suited when applied to systems with a small number of degrees of freedom.
