cummulative energy of temp/rescale with spring/self?

dear all users.
I want to calculate the cummulative energy of “fix temp/rescale” for group of atoms that has been sprung with “spring/self” command.
Now, i want to know, if the springs energy is included in the result of “fix temp/rescale” energy or not?

you are not making much sense here.

fix spring/self affects the *potential* energy
fix temp/rescale affects the *kinetic* energy

of course, there is some exchange going on
between potential and kinetic energy all the
time, but you cannot put a label on which
energy is coming from where once it has
been converted.

axel.

That was fantastic. you are right axel.
