Re: [AMBER] About the system temperature of QMMM simulations (amber12+ Terachem V1.5 )

You didn't set an initial temperature (tempi) in your input file. The
instantaneous temperature probably rose very quickly due to large forces.
A thermostat would likely be useful if your starting configuration is not
of a high Boltzmann weight (ntt, temp0, + other options). I would
recommend checking out the relevant sections in the AMBER12 manual.

Brian
