langevin thermostat versus Nosé-Hoover thermostat

Dear Stefan,

thank you for your quick answer. Actually the system is really small, 10000 atoms more or less.

That’s what I did, I compared langevin ( fix langevin command) thermostat and NH thermostat (fix nvt command) and , in term of pressure, I get a totally different response.

Here the script I am using, with the 2 different thermostats defined:
