[AMBER] wrong estimation of hydrogen velocities when using SHAKE?

Dear Amber users,

I am running NPT simulations and apparently the speeds of the hydrogens are
systematically underestimated roughly by a factor of sqrt(2). I have checked
with two different proteins and two different temperatures, having same
results

I am using the SHAKE algorithm, so I ignore how hydrogen velocities are
estimated in this case.

Below is my input file:

&cntrl
imin=0, irest=1, ntx=5,
ntt=0, tempi=300 ,temp0=300, tautp=1.0,
ntb=1, ntc=2, ntf=2, nsnb=10,
nstlim=250000, dt=0.001,
ntwe=1000, ntpr=1000, ntwx=20, ntwv=20
cut=10.0, ntr=1, nmropt=0,
&end
#Apply restraints to the solute atoms
 1.0
RES 162 176
END
END


-Jose
