Configurational-Bias Monte Carlo Thijs J.H. Vlugt [1]
Random Sampling versus Metropolis Sampling (1)
N interacting particles in volume V at temperature T
- vector representing positions of all particles in the system: rN
- total energy: U(rN)
- statistical weight of configuration rN is exp[βU(rN)] with β = 1/(kBT)
