Hello,

Does anyone know anything about the NumMol program. It's referred to be A.
Becke in some of his papers as being a basis set free numerical package
for electronic structure calculations.

Deos anyone know any details about this program, or how one could obtain a
copy?

thanks

A number of people have written to me asking where to find the Babel
molecular structure conversion program.  The program is by Pat Walters and
Matt Stahl of the University of Arizona (both now work at Vertex
Pharmaceuticals in slightly-less-sunny Boston).  The Babel Home Page is
still up at Arizona:

http://mercury.aichem.arizona.edu/babel.html

The programs are there, and also in the CCL ftp archives:

Subject: Symmetry bug
To: sparlist@wavefun.com, chemistry@www.ccl.net


I run into the following bug every few weeks:

I build a molecule with a certain symmetry (Cs in this case) and optimize its
structure with symmetry ON.  Then I try to reoptimize its structure with a
larger basis set while still using symmetry, but Spartan stops with the
following error message:

SPARTAN AB INITIO PROGRAM

Molecule (C1) and archive (CS) have differenty symmetry. Calculation
terminating.

Can anyone tell me at what point the molecule adopted C1 symmetry? (The input
file and the molecule on the scree both still have CS symmetry).  Does anyone
have any advice on how to proceed? (I really want to do the larger basis set
with symmetry, so I need to convince Spartan that the molecule does have CS
symmetry.)

Note: transferring the coordinates in the archive (CS) to the input file
doesn't help (Spartan already did this automatically when I set up the
calculation for the larger basis set). Spartan still thinks the molecule is C1
and the archive is CS.

There has been some discussion of Gaussian94 running on P6 computers

system.  Has anyone done benchmarks of GaussianW running under NT vs. the
Linux system?

Please direct replies to me, and I will summarize to the list.

Dear Alan,

I have had all kinds of problems with Spartan in controlling molecular
symmetry, and I have rarely been able to work around them.  Spartan seems
to use rather loose cutoffs in determining molecular symmetry.  The
Builder would tell me that the molecule had Cs symmetry, but when I
transferred the coordinates to Gaussian 94, it was C1.  I looked at the
coordinates carefully, and found that they did not in fact describe a Cs
structure-- close, but not exactly, and Gaussian 94 spotted the
difference.  If you haven't already done so, check to make sure that the
cartesian coordinates show reflection symmetry EXACTLY.

Best regards,
Dale

Dear CCL members,

I tried to run a single point MP2 calculation, using Gaussian94
Rev.E.1 on a Cray C90. After entering the MP2 part, the program
stopped with the message
"PickT4: no shell combinations can fit!"

Since I am not sure whether this is a resource (memory, disk)
problem or a more severe technical issue I would like to hear
your opinion before I try to redo this rather expensive calculation.

Thank you in advance,
Dirk Bakowies.


P.S.: I'll append the the last few lines of the output.
