Previously, I have looked at hetero-dimers of molecules, in which the resulting molecular orbitals are nicely localized on either monomer. Now, for two molecules of the same type, the MOs are delocalized over both units even for very large distances and all excited states as linear combinations of these MOs will be delocalized as well. Intuitively, I'd have thought that there will be two "classes" of excitations: i) shift of the energies of the localized excitations, and ii) coupled excitations. Obviously, i) is totally missing if the start MOs delocalize. Is there anything I'm missing?

Scott, You are asking for a very complicated problem in a forum suposedly created for professionals: CCL (Computational Chemistry List). However, the formulation of your question does not permit to identify you as a professional. At least not a CCL professional. Please, see a professor near you and interest him/her enough to take you as a student.

Scott,

Sorry, but I don't really understand your question. What is your level
of knowledge on Molecular Spectroscopy?

The IP for a molecule is the result of an experimental measurement. What do you want to know, how IPs can be calculated? Which tables of data
access? Please, let us know which are your intentions.

I'm guessing Matlab / Octave can do this, probably gnuplot as well.
