Topical Meeting: Advanced Sampling Techniques
Group leader: Kai Kratzer Members: Angel Diaz Carral, Ewa Anna Oprzeska-Zingrebe, Fabian Zills, Maria Fyta, Samuel Tovey
In this topical group, we discuss advanced / meta sampling techniques. We concentrate on two main problems, namely the sampling of rare transitions and free energies.
Schedule
The meeting takes place every three weeks on Tuesdays at 10:30, if not indicated differently.

Tools
For rare events, we use
- Forward Flux Sampling
- Transition Interface Sampling
The standard tool here is FRESHS
For free energy calculations
- Umbrella Sampling
- Metadynamics
The standard tool here is PLUMED
