Dear CCL

I am testing small transition states optimization jobs with 
reference data at the moment. Unfortunaly I am using Gaussian 98 
and the reference (Houk et al.) used Gaussian 92. 

And I can not remember the default grid in Gaussian 92 for DFT
(b3lyp/6-31g*) and I would appreciate if some of you have a better 
memory than I. DFT was not in the first gaussian 92 release as far as I
can recall, but in a later release.

In case you find the default grid for DFT in gaussian 94, please let me
know.

With regards

Per

Dear CCLers,

this is a summary of answers I received to my question on basis set
extrapolation. Many Thanks!

Karin


1. from Jamie Platts <Platts@Cardiff.ac.uk>
Origin of Attraction and Directionality of the pi/pi Interaction:
Model Chemistry Calculations of Benzene Dimer Interaction.
Seiji Tsuzuki,* Kazumasa Honda, Tadafumi Uchimaru, Masuhiro Mikami, and
Kazutoshi Tanabe, JACS 2002 (124) p104.

The MP2 energy at the basis set limit was estimated by the method proposed
by Feller.80 In Fellers method the calculated interaction energies were
fitted to the form a + b exp(-cX) (where X is 2 for cc-pVDZ, 3 for
cc-pVTZ, etc). The MP2 energy at the basis limit (EMP2(limit)) was then
estimated by extrapolation.

where ref. 80 is (80) Feller, D. J. Chem. Phys. 1992, 96, 6104.


2. from Stefan Fau <fau@qtp.ufl.edu>
there is an extrapolation scheme in Peterson,
Woon, Dunning, J. Chem. Phys. 100, 7410
(1994), equation 2. For DZ, TZ, and QZ
the "complete basis set" value is computed as:
V(extr.) =
[ cb2*(V3-b3'*V1) - cb3*(V2-b2'*V1) ] /
[ cb2*(1-b3') - cb3*(1-b2') ]

cbN = exp(-N^2) - exp(-N)
bN' = exp(-(N-1))
N = X-1 (cc-pVXZ)
V1 = V(cc-pVDZ)

You should find that the extrapolated values from
the cc-pVXZ and aug-cc-pVXZ series are very
similar. They would be identical if the extrapolation
were perfect since cc-pVXZ and aug-cc-pVXZ
become identical in the limit of X -> inf.


3. from Juan Pablo Senosiain <senos@Stanford.EDU>
there ares several methods/models for performing the basis set
extrapolations.  Check out the references by T. Helgaker et al.
e.g. J. chem. Phys. v112,  pp.9229


4. from Johannes Weber <Johannes.Weber@uni-koeln.de>
several extrapolation procedures have been suggested in the literature. At
the moment I have only one reference handy:

D.Feller, K. A. Peterson, J.Chem.Phys. 108, 154 (1998).


5. from Christoph van Wüllen <Christoph.vanWullen@tu-berlin.de>
es gibt z.B. eine 2-Punkt-Extrapolationsformel von Truhlar, neben einigen
anderen.
(there is a 2-point extrapolation formula by Truhler, among others)


References collected by myself are:
J.Chem.Phys. 2001, 114, p.1974 (Feller and Sordo)
J.Chem.Phys. 2000, 112, p.5604 (Sordo)


My question was:
> I have done CCSD(T) single point calculations with cc-pVXZ (X=D,T,Q) and
> aug-cc-pVXZ (X=D,T) basis sets for several structures on a reaction
> path. Now I would like to know whether it is possible to do a basis set

A superset of CML (CMLQuery) is being developed to support generic 
structures. (Queries and Markush are very similar as they represent a set 
of compounds rather than a single one.) The criteria we try to adopt for 
any new addition to CML include:
- does it cover a wide range of current practice?
- is it possible to support it in software? It must be relatively easy to 
implement and we need a working example before we feel happy about adding a 
feature.

Best

P.

(If you have a particular application in mind I would be happy to be mailed 
off-list).

Hi, DOCK user

Does anyone learn how to add the strutural information of ligands from =
the crystal structure into the resulting file of sphgen (that is *.sph)? =
I think the ligand coordinates are easy to be added into the *.sph file. =
But how can we determine the sphere redius for those atoms from the =
crystal structure? Besides, How can we designate the number of the atom =
with which suface atoms are associated?=20

Could anyone share me with his experience in sphere generation? Any =
suggestion is appreciated.

Dear netters:

I'm trying to calculate solvation energy of a set of systems using G98. =
I've seen that PCM model shows many contributions to this solvation =
energy and solvation energy value itself, while IPCM and SCI-PCM only =
gives a final energy but neither any solvation energy nor any =
contribution to that energy is printed in the output file. Could anybody =
tell me how can I extract solvation energy from an IPCM or SCI-PCM =
calculation output?

Many thanks

Oscar

SURA Computational Chemistry Workshop
Software Solutions to Large Scale Problems in Computational Chemistry
University of Kentucky, Lexington, Kentucky
October 7 & 8, 2002


The theme of the conference will be to examine alternatives for mapping
computational chemistry software on to the new generation of Terascale
machines.  For example, the National Science Foundation is building the ETF
(Extended Terascale Facility) sometimes known as the Teragrid, which will
consist of thousands of processors connected by a 40 Gigabit network with links
of several thousands of miles between sites.  The key question for
computational chemistry is “Will future computational chemistry be able to take
advantage of the Teragrid to solve very large scale problems?”

This conference will examine current and future computational chemistry
techniques and software, such as quantum chemistry, molecular dynamics,
materials research, biology and bioinformatics. Several of the leading
researchers in these fields have committed to attend and make presentations,
either in Lexington or over the Internet through the use of the Access Grid
Network..  See the following web site for details and registration.

Dear CCL users,

   I have other questions concerning docking experiment.

    Is there any correlation between the binding constant, Ki, of the 
ligand and the ability of the docking program to predict its interaction 
with the binding site?

    Is there a lower limit for the binding constant below which predicting 
the ligand position becomes more difficult??

    Can we predict the binding of carbohydrate ligands which usually have 
binding affinity in the mM range?

    I wonder if people consider the binding constant when they select a set 
of ligands to validate their docking programs or they don't.

     Do they include ligands with low affinities in the testing set?


   Appreciated any comment  to clarify this point.

    Thanks for your help.

  Ibrahim

Hi, Dear CCLers,

  I plan to calculate the band structure of the surface. Could someone 
tell me how to choose the high-symmetry k-points, and where to find the 
coordinate for these k-points. Is there any website about this topic?
I have searched them by google, but there are little useful informations.
  Thanks for you reply. I shall summary it later.
  Best regards!

sincerely.
Yun Wang
