Systematic parametrization of non-Markovian dissipative thermostats for coarse-grained molecular simulations with accurate dynamics — •Viktor Klippenstein and Nico F. A. Van Der Vegt — Eduard-Zintl-Institut für Anorganische und Physikalische Chemie, Technische Universität Darmstadt, 64287 Darmstadt, Germany

The Mori-Zwanzig theory, in principle, allows to derive an exact equation of motion for coarse-grained degrees of freedom based on the dynamics of an underlying fine-grained reference system.[1] Still, in practice the simultaneous representation of structural and dynamic properties in particle-based models poses a complicated problem, e.g. due to the non-linearity of the exact coarse-grained equation of motion.

A viable approximate approach is to start from a conservative coarse-grained force-field and to extend the standard Newtonian equation of motion used in molecular simulation with a linear generalized Langevin thermostat. We demonstrate how such a thermostat can be parametrized to correctly represent dynamic properties, both in a purely bottom-up approach[2,3] or by applying iterative optimization.[3] We consider the Asakura-Oosawa model as a test case.[3]
