Direct molecular NVT simulation of the isobaric heat capacity, speed of sound and Joule–Thomson coefficient

Explicit statistical analogues are given for the isobaric heat capacity, the speed of sound and the Joule–Thomson coefficient in the canonical ensemble. The results can directly serve as rigorous measuring prescriptions in existing molecular NVT simulation codes.
