Cluster formation of Lennard‐Jones particles (65 536 atoms in a unit cell with an overall number density equal to 0.0149) was simulated by molecular dynamics. The temperature was set to decrease linearly with time by various thermostats, starting from a gas state temperature and ending at zero temperature. With the Nose–Hoover thermostat, it was found that the translational temperature of the clusters suddenly decreased almost to zero when the cluster formation drastically increased around a reduced temperature (T*) of 0.5, while the internal temperature decreased linearly. Using the Andersen thermostat, which could simulate the aggregation of particles in an inert gas, both the internal and translational temperatures decreased almost linearly with time. When these thermostats were used, cluster–cluster and cluster–atom collisions did not give any magic number peaks in the size distribution up to 250 atoms/cluster at any temperature. Careful tracing of the cluster growth of 13‐atom clusters showed no diff...
