<P>The removal of the center-of-mass velocity by this fix is essentially
computing the temperature after a "bias" has been removed from the
velocity of the atoms. If this compute is used with a fix command
that performs thermostatting then this bias will be subtracted from
each atom, thermostatting of the remaining thermal velocity will be
performed, and the bias will be added back in. Thermostatting fixes
that work in this way include <A HREF = "fix_nvt.html">fix nvt</A>, <A HREF = "fix_temp_rescale.html">fix
