Hi,
that depends. If your softcore region is small, you will see larger
fluctuations than for a full MM-system, up to hundreds of K for a single
SC atom. This is normal I believe. You should get the correct average over
a longer simulation though. Still, look at your trajectories to check if
the SC region behaves normally to make sure.
