Goodmorning,

We're interested in obtaining Hirshfeld charges from the output of 
Gaussian 98/Gamess-UK, does somebody know a package which 
can handle this. We've seen some mentioning of a package named 
"ESTAR" but the references were quite old.

Thanks in advance,

Stefan Bromley

As a side note...   I feel I've given it before ;-)

For small systems like bimolecular collisions the variable time-step
method with Gauss-Radau spaced substeps in:

E. Everhart, in Dynamics of Comets: Their Origin and Evaluation, ed. A.
Carusi and G. B. Valsecchi (Reidel, Dordrecht 1985) 185.

was evaluated in:

K. Bolton, S. Nordholm, J. Comp. Phys. 113 (1994) 320.

and shows nice energy conservation and also keeps good track of rotational
energy at a comparably light numerical load.

I've always used it in my MD simulations of molecular collisions.... but
then again I might have missed the original question here.. ;-)
... I don't think it will go to very large timesteps but try to stay
within the frequencies.

for all its worth :-)

Dear CCLers,

Do you know the best way to calculate the optimization transtion state using 
Gassian98? Your kind help is most appreciated.

Does anyone have (or know the wherabouts of) software which will
analyse the temperature vs time data that is produced from the Tronac
isoperibol solution calorimeter (model no: 458). The software should be able
to calculate the heat of solution (delta H) when the glass ampoule
containing the product under test is broken, thereby releasing the test
material into the solvent.

Any form of software would be helpful either MS-DOS based or Windows. Have
tried Tronac but they no longer produce any software!!

re txyoung, TS calcs:

First try to get a reasonable input geometry. I usually guess it (I find this
almost always works), build it with an interacive molecule builder like
GaussView or Spartan's builder, then do an AM1 or HF/3-21G TS optimization, then
submit the AM1 or 3-21G TS structure to your ab initio or DFT calc.
With Gaussian I usually use Opt(TS, CalcHFFC, NoEigenTest, MaxCycle=99)

The CalcHHFC (calc Hartree-Fock Force constants) is to get a good Hessian if you
are doing a correlated-level calc (e.g. MP2); for a HF-level calc omit it.
NoEigenTest tells Gaussian not to check the eigenvalues of the Hessian as it
goes along; Gaussian TS calcs always seem to fail if you omit NoEigenTest (at
least G94 did). MaxCycle=99 is so a difficult job won't fail just because it ran
out of optimization cycles.

It may be helpful to get an AM1 or HF/3-21G TS using some other program, then
feed the Cartesians into Gaussian.

If you have problems guesssing a starting geom, Gaussian has algorithms for
getting one from the reactant and product structures--look in help under
optimization options.

Hi, I am new to molecular simulations.  Does anyone know any good
reference that shows how to run molecular simulations and particularly how
to use CHARMM?  Examples with explaination will help too.

Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Alice
