For reasons that have been abundantly pointed out to me, the isotope
effect can't make the changes I was asking for. On the other hand,
with positronium, one gets spectral lines that are exactly half those
of the hydrogen atom. In effect, this is accomplished by reducing
the mass of the nucleus to that of an electron.

Therefore, suppose that we could make exotic atoms whose nuclei are
perhaps based on other elementary particles, e.g. muons and/or positrons.
Maybe they would be very short lived, but it might still make sense to talk
about their electronic structure.

In such an atom, we could make the nuclear mass much closer to that of
the electrons.

Since this leaves the realm of experiment, at least for the present,
it becomes a question to be settled by ab initio computations: by making
the nuclear mass sufficiently small, but preserving the nuclear charge,
can we get the "irregularities" in the Aufbau process to disappear.

	Dear CCL'ers,

	On July 30, I have sent to CCL the following request:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------  
I would be very much obliged to anybody who could give me 
any references on the following subject:

(1) numerical solution of Schroedinger equation for the simplest
two-electron systems (i.e., Helium atom or H2 molecule) - I believe, it's
impossible that such kind of work has never been done; 

(2) any available software for solving numerically the  partial
differential equations with singularities. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

	I am grateful to everybody who has responded.
	Below there are these responces (responce No.1 contains also my
additional question and answer)

Hi Alexei

Koonin and Meredith in their book _Computational Physics
(Fortan Edition)__ (Addison-Wesley, 1990) go into such 
programs, at the Hartree-Fock level, providing Fortran 
source code and references. I've been making dilatory 
efforts the week or so since I found the book to get 
that code in electronic medium. Not sucessfully-- 
book out of print, ftp sites no longer accomodating
anonymous login, that sort of thing.  

A pity-- it's a good work in several ways.  Perhaps 
CCL will converge on the source code, and it may dwell
in CCL's most exellent repository.

	Dear CCL'ers,

	Could anybody hint me (or give some reference) concerning the
energy levels for uni-dimensional motion in the Morse potential? (I read
that this problem has been solved exactly, but may be I confused something
and this is not the case). What I need in exactly is the partition
function for the vibrational motion just in this Morse potential. 

	Secondly, I also heard (but not found anywhere) that there is an
exact expression of the partition function for the hindered internal
rotations. Does anybody know, where one could find it?

Salut Frederique,

je suppose que tu utilises G94?
Dans ce cas, utilise le mot clef : GUESS=MIX
ca brise la symetrie spatiale des spinorbitales.
Le mot clef NOSYM peux aussi aider.
Il y a des papiers de Pople et d'autres de Tim Clark
datant des annees 80 a propos des dipoles 1-3, qui
utilisent cette methode.

and in a second email:

Re,

il y a eu recemment des articles de C. Cramer
sur les biradicaux :
"Density Functional Theory: Excited States and Spin Annihilation"
C. J. Cramer, F. J. Dulles, D. J. Giesen and J. Almlof, Chem. Phys.
Lett.
je ne me rappelle plus le numero mais c'est paru en 1995 ou debut

Hello Frederique,
I saw your posting on CCL.  We will have a beautiful tutorial on
diradicals
and UHF in Vol. 13 of Reviews in Computational Chemistry.  This volume
will
not appear till next March unfortunately.  It is presently in press.
The wait
will be long, but I assure you that it will be worthwhile.

Dear Frederique,

    Recently it is published a very interestig paper of E. Davidson
(Int. J.

of
diradicals using DFT methods.

    Hope this help you,

Dear CCLers,

I have a question related to the size dependence of intermolecular
electrostatic energy in molecular crystals. 
If the crystal contains a single kind of molecule, then I guess the
coulombic interaction of a given molecule M' with all the others M'
should increase when larger molecules are considered, because assuming a
point charge model, their are more intermolecular atomic pairs K-K'
contribution to this coulombic interaction involving M.... however I
cannot get sure of it as there are both negative and positive
contributions ?
Has anybody got any insight into the dependence of this electrostatic
interaction energy of a molecule M with others molecules M' of the
material on the molecular size ?
Thank you

 From Wayne Huang of Wavefunction:
1998 Aug

  Spartans pBP method is closest to (of the Gaussian-type methods) B88-P86
(non-hybrid) functional combination.
  Use of post-SCF gradient corrections has been incorporated in several DFT
programs (e.g. ADF, DGauss, DMol). Was typical before Gaussian implemented a
hybrid method in 1992.
 See book on Spartan's DFT by Hehre and Lou.

  The DN* should be close to 6-311+G* and DN** to 6-311++G**.
  We do not have scaling factors [for freqs, ZPE]. However, pBP underestimates
vib. freqs by a few percent (hardly beyond 5%). For heavier atoms, especially
metals, with freqs < 500 cm-1, might underestimate by 5-10%.
                                        [I have some scaling factors
  huang@wavefun.com                      I worked out myself--EL]

I cannot say for G98, but when I compiled G94 using PGI, i got 25% speedup
on average, so 30% for g98 looks reasonable to me.
I wonder what can be gained using the PentiumPro-optimized BLAS that you can
get from Los Alamos.

Dear Colleaques !

QCNT - Quantum Chemistry on Windows NT -

Is the name of a new mailing list opended today
for everyone who is interested in compuational chemistry,
molecular modeling, molecular visualisation etc. and 
uses or considers to use Microsoft Windows NT 
on Intel or Alpha processors.

This list is meant as a tool for sharing information
covering the complete spectrum of NT as a powerful alternative 
to traditional Unix workstations like

* Optimising NT for performance ( e.g OpenGL graphic cards, 
  SCSI versus EIDE, RAID5 controllers etc. )
* Porting from Unix ( OpenNT, MKS, GnuWin32)
* Software available for this platfrom ( G98W, PC-GAMESS...)
* Building and operating clusters with NT ( HPVM, PVM, MPI )
* Development tools ( GnuWin32, Digital Visual Fortran,...)
* Unix/NT connectivity ( X-Window servers, NFS, etc.)

and asking/solving problems when doing scientific work
with this rather new platform.

I would appreciate your subscription to this mailing list
under http://www.onelist.com/subscribe.cgi/qcnt

The archives of the messages posted are available at
http://www.onelist.com/archives.cgi/qcnt


Kind regards
