Abstract
It is often difficult to quantitatively determine if a new molecular simulation algorithm or software properly implements sampling of the desired thermodynamic ensemble. We present some simple statistical analysis procedures to allow sensitive determination of whether a de- sired thermodynamic ensemble is properly sampled. We demonstrate the utility of these tests for model systems and for molecular dynamics simulations in a range of situations, includ- ing constant volume and constant pressure simulations, and describe an implementation of the tests designed for end users.
