Dear CCLers

someone knows the fate of Unichem? Is it still available after
Accelrys took over Oxmol?

Dear CCLers,

Has anyone tried the ADMP part included in the G03 package and tried to 
control the temperature?
I would basically like to run two simulations at two different 
temperatures - but I do not know how to control this - by initial 
velocities of the centra applies only to NVE?
If anyone from Gaussian is listening I would be happy for some response.

sincerely

Dear everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had any information on how to run X3LYP calculations
described by Xin Xu and William Goddard III  in any other program besides
JAGUAR. This extended density functional seems very interesting to me, and if
it describes hydrogen bonding much better than B3LYP, it would be a much
faster and better DFT method. 

Thanks,

Hi,

I am trying to do a geometry optimization on a large system which contains some atoms
that are involved in a transition-state structure.  I would like to fix the portion of
the molecule with the TS geometry and do an optimization on the rest of the atoms. 
What is the best method to freeze the TS atoms?  I have been looking at the
ModRedundant function, but am unaware of how to create the secondary input after the
zmatrix for this.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Joe Harriman

To: "Dr. Jan K. Labanowski" <jkl$at$ccl.net>
Date: Wed, 2 Jun 2004 16:03:48 +0300 (IDT)


Dear All:

     I have installed Gaussian 03 on a RedHat 9.0 Linux system. 
The hardware configuration I am using is -

         IBM xSeries 225, model 8647
         2 Intel Xeon processors (2.4 GHz)
         512 Kb Second Level Cache on each processor
         2 Gb DDR RAM
         SCSI Ultra320
         2 removable disks of 73.4 Gb each

I have started to run some simple jobs as benchmarks, and found the following 
results (2 other unix systems were added for comparison) -

							     [1]
   Gaussian Benchmark (HF/3-21G Opt=Z-matrix, 18 heavy atoms)

			   [2]      [3]      [4]
			WS1      WS2      WS3
   =============================================
   1-Processor         2049     3759     3793
   2-Processors        1330     2038     2064
   Scalability         1.54     1.84     1.84

   speed ratio
   (for 1-Proc)        2.54     1.38     1.37

   2 1-Proc jobs
   simultaneously      2570
   % reduction          25
   =============================================
   [1] Clock time in seconds.
   [2] WS1: IBM X-225; Intel Xeon 2.4 GHZ; Linux RedHat 9.0;
       Gaussian 03 Rev B.04
   [3] WS2: IBM-RS6000 7026-B80; PowerPC_POWER3 375 MHZ; AIX 5.2;
       Gaussian 03 Rev B.04
   [4] WS3: SGI-Origin 300; R14000 600 MHZ; IRIX64 6.5.19;
       Gaussian 03 Rev B.04


     It seems that the scalability on the Linux system is very low, even for 2 
processors. Moreover, running 2 separate jobs simultaneously (each using one 
processor) seems to reduce heavily the performance of both processors.

     Does anyone has experience with Gaussian 03 (or other heavy chemistry 
applications) on Linux system? Did you get better results?

     Thanks in advance for your help

     Regards

Hi 

Does anyone know of any freely available/open source software for
distance geometry calculations for small molecules?

I'm particularly interested in the initial set up of distance bounds
and then the smoothing of them using the triangle (and possibly
tetrangle) inequalities.

Many thanks

Hello Joey,

If I understand, you just want to make a partial geometry optimization, i.e. without
moving some atoms of the molecule.
To do so, there are two ways in Gaussian : it depends if you use cartesian coordinates or
a z-matrix

In the first case, just put the flag "-1" between the atom type and its coordinates (see
my answer to Kadri a few days ago)
(just be careful not to put a non frozen atom in first which is atomatically frozen)

In the second, you'll freeze internal coordinates :
use the keyword "opt=z-mat"
write your Z matrix not with numerical values but with variables

after your Z matrix, you must give values to the variables : name of the variable follewd
by the value
(this is in fact the general way to write a Z-matrix, nothing new)
To freeze some values, juste put in first the set of variables, a blank line and second,
the set of constants.
I'm not sure to be clear enough, so here is an example :



# RHF/STO-3G opt=z-mat

title : methanol

0 1
C
H   1   R1
H   1   R1   2   A1
H   1   R1   2   A1   3 D1
O   1   R2   2   A1   3 -D1
H   5   R3   1   A2   2 D2

R1 1.083
R2 1.44
A1 109.47122
D1 120.0

R3 0.96
A2 104.48
D2 180.0



R1, R2, A1 and D1 will be allowed to vary whereas R3, A2 and D2 won't be.



I hope this will help you,

Yohann

Dear all,

Is there any information for evaluation of results such as electronic
energy from different kinds of computer? I want to know the derivation
of results from different kinds of computer.

For example, when Gaussian software is used, the same molecule's
electronic energies calculated from different kinds of computer are:

Intel Pentium III PC vs. Intel Pentium III PC cluster vs.
Alphaworkstation vs. IBM RS/6000 SP Supercomputer vs. ... etc.

Thank you for your attention.

Best regards,

Patrick

Hi Joey,
yes, the modredundant optimization is a good choice. If you have gaussview the 
procedure is pretty symple trhough the reduntant coordinate editor. If you 
are not using gaussview it could be pretty challanging if your sistem is 
rather big. However you have to put your redundant specifications after a 
blank line at the end of the g03 input. If you need to freeze an atom 
coordinate (cartesian) you'll write 

X N0 F

where N0 is the atom number you want to freeze

if you want to freeze a bond lenght the syntax will be

B N1 N2 F

for an angle

A N1 N2 N3 F

and for a dihedral

D N1 N2 N3 N4 F

where Nn are the respective atom numbers

Hope this help

Hi,

The fastest way is to use the cartesian coordinates of your system 
instead of the redundant internal ones. Then in order to optimize only a 
subset of atoms, use the following notation:

Atom_i    0   X_i  Y_i  Z_i
Atom_j   -1   X_j  Y_j  Z_j

That means that you freeze the position of atom j while atom i is free 
to move. Then running a standard optimization job in REDUNDANT INTERNAL 
COORDINATES is still possible: OPT is enough if the number of atoms is 
less than 50, or use OPT=REDUNDANT. The internal coordinate builder will 
  add coordinates between active atoms, between active and frozen atoms 
but not between frozen atoms.

Hope this helps,

Nicolas

Dear all,

Has anyone used Amber force field in NAMD calculation? I feel a little bit
confused: When using Charmm in NAMD, we have topology file to build
structure (generate psf file), and parameter file to do calculation. But
when goes to Amber, what is the corresponding topology file? And how about
the format of the tcl or inp file to generate psf file? Which of the
parameter files is the best for protein-DNA system? (like parm99.dat,
parm99EP.dat, etc.)

Thanks a lot for your kind help!

Best,
Jeny

Can AIM be used to evaluate bonding in a transition state structure?
After reading Bader's web site, he often refers to equilibrium
structures.  Yet it seems that there is no apparent prohibition against
employing AIM to studying transition states.  Since AIM is based on a
physical observable and a TS is not a physical observable is it still
valid to apply AIM analysis to a transition state?

Hi Peter,

The DGauss portion of Unichem still lives on as part of the CAChe suite, 
and is supported by Fujitsu <sales[at]cachesoftware.com>. Not sure about what 
happened to the other parts of Unichem.

Regards,
David Gallagher, Fujitsu.

Jeny:

Yes, I've used it.  I haven't used Charmm but have used amber a long
time.  Amber splits a molecule into a coordinate file and a topology
file (I thought most programs like charmm, sybyl, insight...) also did
this, but maybe I'm mistaken.  You will have to construct these files. 
Perhaps babel will take your charmm files and write out amber files
(babel will do this but i don't know how good a job it does). 
Alternatively, you can get moil-view (
http://morita.chem.sunysb.edu/~carlos/moil-view.html ) which can read
pdb/charmm/amber files and can write amber coordinate and topology
files.

Which force field to use is a tough question to answer.  I do DNA and
use parm99.  Perhaps consult the literature and see what people seem to
be using for this type of problem.

Dear all,

Has anyone used Amber force field in NAMD calculation? I feel a little
bit
confused: When using Charmm in NAMD, we have topology file to build
structure (generate psf file), and parameter file to do calculation.
But
when goes to Amber, what is the corresponding topology file? And how
about
the format of the tcl or inp file to generate psf file? Which of the
parameter files is the best for protein-DNA system? (like parm99.dat,
parm99EP.dat, etc.)

Thanks a lot for your kind help!

Best,
Jeny

Hi all,
 
I am getting this message in my log file when trying to run optimization
with pcm using Linda and 4 processers:
 
 
FileIO operation on non-existent file.
 
Error termination in NtrErr:
 NtrErr Called from FileIO.
 
Any thoughts?  My rwf files are not maxed out.

Dear all:

        Some time ago I requested your help due to a problem compiling =
gaussian on a Xeon, basically the compilation went Ok until the end but =
when I tried to run a calculation, it stops when entering link 101 =
without any error messages.

        I received a few very useful e-mails that made me aware that =
Gaussian was looking for the compiler in the wrong directory.  I solved =
that (I think) but I still have the same problem so I have another =
question for you.

        In the make.log file, there are a lot of lines saying:

   112, Loop not vectorized: too deeply nested
    69, Loop not vectorized: multiple exits
    80, Loop not vectorized: contains call

Among others.  Why is this happening? is this the reason for which =
Gaussian does not work? how can I solve it? is this due to another =
component that is the wrong directory?  Please I desperately need help =
with this before I have to trash the Xeon Cluster I recently acquired (I =
am of course overreacting, I am starting to panic though).=20

FYI I am running Red Hat 9.0, I have the Portland compiler installed and =
I am trying to install Gaussian 03 revision B.03

Thank you very much

Pedro

Subject: Charge Fitting to MEP from ADF
To: chemistry/at/ccl.net

Hi!
 
I am interesting in fitting atom centered charges to molecular
electrostatic potentials generated with ADF (Amsterdam Density
Functional Theory Package 2004/3).
 
I know that Molden is capable of doing this with an add-on
program ADFrom. Unfortunately, the link to ADFrom is broken
and the version I can track down may be outdated.
 
Gaussian and Gamess have the R.E.D. interface for doing this
job with the RESP method of Kollman.
 
Is any one aware of a similar interface for ADF? I am unable
to find any in the web, except for the Molden option listed above.
 
(Several years ago I wrote my own taking advantage of
Mathematica. For several reasons I am not able to use that
program. I rather not reinvent the wheel, so I am asking for
your help. However, if I reprogram the stuff I'll be wiser and
use Python or Java ;-)
 
Bye!
Gustavo
