So, I want to know that does it means that we can calculate the frequecy of excited states in a analytic way? Or it only calculate the gradient analytically, but the frequecy of excited states will be calculated by means of numerical difference of analytical gradient?     Looking forward to your reply!     Best wishes     Mr. Haibin Li Haibin Li Institute of Functional Material Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry Northeast Normal University changchun, Jilin, 130024 PR CHINA E-mail: lihb734++nenu.edu.cn; lihb734++yahoo.com http://www.nenu.edu.cn ----- Original Message ----- > From: Jing Kong jkong:-:q-chem.com > To: "Li, Hai-Bin " > Cc: > Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2011 12:12 AM > Subject: CCL: Workshop on Electronic Structure Calculations preceding WATOC 2011 > > > Sent to CCL by: "Jing Kong" [jkong__q-chem.com] > Dear colleague: > > Q-Chem would like to invite you to a workshop of quantum chemistry in > Santiago de Compostela, Spain in the afternoon of Saturday, July 16, 2011.  > It is the day before WATOC 2011 starts.

It has one isolated double bond so there is not much uncertainty about the choice of orbitals for the active space. My starting geometry is close to optimal because it is the final point in a previous IRC run at the same level and basis set. At step two of the geometry optimization, the energy shoots up by about 10 hartrees, despite the fact that the geometry hardly changes. After a few cycles, the energy drops by roughly the same amount, but oscillates around a value ~20 kcal/mol higher than the starting value until the maximum numbers of optimization cycles is reached. The molecule has no symmetry. Comments much appreciated.

Don't have any use for these devices yet. They are still not tried and trusted, although in the future they will provide a good connectivity solution. I know that my HP-41CV helped me as a grad student many years ago with programming. That device was a vast improvement over my slide rule! Those creating science apps should be applauded, so long as future devices do not get so hot as to set fire to my trousers! lol At present, I would need either bigger/more pockets or a briefcase to safely carry the device. I do not text anyone. It is not a replacement for a verbal conversation. So, I am content with my laptop. The screen is large enough for me to be able to see what I am writing in my manuscripts and I can SSH into my Linux box in the lab from anywhere. Instead of this new fangled micro-technology, I will buy a quad C34 basic server with 4 bulldozer 16 core cpus as soon as I have a new job. Presently, with 32 cores and regular desktop memory they can be assembled for ~$3K US, more with reg ECC memory. If I buy 1 a year, I should be able to take over the world by 2020. In the meantime, I still have about 2 dozen papers to write, 10 of which will be for a student who just received a Vanier Scholarship which was helped by his work with me on sterol-lipid interactions.
