On page 6,1 there is a typographical error in the equation for the equilibrium probability density function (i.e., the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution or MBD) of each velocity component (Ui = Ux, Uy, or Uz). The correct equation should read

P(Ui)=m2πkBT12expmUi22kBT.

We note that this typographical error has no bearing on the results of Figs. 4 and 7; the figures are correctly plotted in the published article with the correct formula given above.
