Entropic tempering: A method for overcoming quasiergodicity in simulation

The parallel tempering, multicanonical ensemble, and multiple histogram methods are combined into a powerful technique allowing enhanced sampling of complex energy surfaces. This method is shown to improve significantly the ergodic behavior in simulations of cluster melting. Application to the finit...
