23. It should be noted that the property of the Noś-Hoover thermostat to sample the canonical phase space distribution relies on the system being ergodic under the Noś-Hoover dynamics. For systems that are not ergodic in this manner, e.g., certain small or stiff systems, the technique of Noś-Hoover chains (Ref.) provides a remedy. It is apparent that the systems analyzed in this work are well-behaved in this respect and hence Noś-Hoover chains are not applied.

28. i is zero; but on shorter time-scales, n will be proportional to the surface area of the cutoff region and be affected by the diffusion and density fluctuation characteristics of the material at the given thermodynamic state. Specifically, n will be related to the spatiotemporal two-point density correlation function of the system integrated over the cutoff region.
