Abstract
Equilibrium Langevin dynamics of one-dimensional Lennard-Jones chains is st udied. It is shown that depending on the noise strength, the friction const ant and the number of particles, chains can synchronize, break, or remain d esynchronized. Generally the synchronization time and the maximal Lyapunov exponent are found to depend on the number of particles and the ratio of no ise strength to friction constant.
