The subtraction technique is a powerful tool for studying nonequilibrium phenomena in manybody systems at short times. Its major limitation lies in the long-time noise due to the Lyapunov divergence of initially close trajectories in phase space. We present a method to compute transport coefficients even when long-time tails are present, with a subtraction technique modified by adding a kind of frictional force field to monitor the phase-space divergence. The price to be paid is to perform an extrapolation of the results to zero field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
