Dear All,
After a lot of effort we compiled NBO with the latest GAMESS version.
After running a sample file, we are getting an error:

Computational Chemistry: 
Introduction to the Theory and Applications of Molecular Quantum
Mechanics
by Errol Lewars.

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce this recently published book title, available as
both a hardback and paperback. Please find below some brief details as
well as an abbreviated Table of Contents.

If you require further information, please contact me or see:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Computational chemistry has become extremely important in the last
decade, being widely used in academic and industrial research. Yet there
have been few books designed to teach the subject to nonspecialists.

Computational Chemistry: Introduction to the Theory and Applications of
Molecular and Quantum Mechanics is an invaluable tool for teaching and
researchers alike. The book provides an overview of the field, explains
the basic underlying theory at a meaningful level that is not beyond
beginners, and it gives numerous comparisons of different methods with
one another and with experiment. 

The following concepts are illustrated and their possibilities and
limitations are given:
* potential energy surfaces
* simple and extended Hückel methods
* ab initio, AM1 and related semiempirical methods
* density functional theory (DFT)

Topics are placed in a historical context, adding interest to them and
removing much of their apparently arbitrary aspect. The large number of
references, to all significant topics mentioned, should make this book
useful not only to undergraduates but also to graduate students and
academic and industrial researchers.


Table of Contents
Chapter 1: An outline of what computational chemistry is all about
Chapter 2: The concept of the potential energy surface
Chapter 3: Molecular mechanics
Chapter 4: Introduction to quantum mechanics in computational chemistry
Chapter 5: Ab initio calculations
Chapter 6: Semiempirical calculations
Chapter 7: Density functional calculations
Chapter 8: Literature, software, books and websites

Approximately 470 pages

 Dear colleagues

 I'd like to find out what was the company that
presented the 3D technology described below.

 I stopped by at the same booth, and was quite
impressed by the demo they had. They showed a clip
converted into a pseudo-3D from flat images and it
looked not as good as true 3D but better than 2D.
The modelling part was good too.

 I talked to the presenter briefly, and he mentioned
that he actually was from a different company (not
Fujitsu). Unfortunately, I did not write down the
name, and can't remember what the company was.

 Anybody remembers/knows what was the company with
that 3D technology?

 Thanks!

 Konstantin

Subject: 1D secondary structure plot

Hi all,

Does anyone know of a tool or viewer which can take a PDB file
and, based on the secondary structure, make a one-dimensional
secondary structure plot?

What I'm envisioning is the type of figures where helices are drawn
as rectangles or cylinders and sheet elements are drawn as arrows.
Some database websites might do this, but ideally I'd like to have
a scalable PostScript plot rather than a rasterized image.

Also, since I'd like to place pictures like this above or below graphs displaying
quantities calculated on a per-residue (or per-atom) basis from an MD simulation
(so as to make clearer which secondary structure elements are involved), I'd like
a standalone tool that could work on an intermediate structure from the simulation,
not just a structure from a database.

Sorry about the length of the message - just wanted to be specific about what I
would ideally like.

Many thanks,

Craig Shepherd

Dear CCL'ers,

I'm triying to build amber7 on an alpha machine, I set the following:
ln -s -f Machines/Machine.axp MACHINE    or
ln -s -f Machines/Machine.axp_f90 MACHINE

and I got the following error:

If I check the file new2oldparm.f, I can't find anything wrong, actually

Dear CCL:

In Nurrell's classical book from 1963, "The Theory of the Electronic 
Spectra of Organic Molecules", Erich Clar is quoted for the following 
observations concerning the characteristic transitions in benzenoid 
hydrocarbons (pp 92-94):

"Clar designates the three types of bands 1, 2 and 3 by the symbols 
alpha, p (for para) and beta respectively, distinguishing different 
bands of the same type by primed subscripts. Apart from their 
intensity and structural characteristics he distinguishes the alpha 
bands by the fact that they move to shorter wavelengths on lowering 
the temperature whereas the p and beta bands move to longer 
wavelengths."

I am presently trying to get hold of the original work of Erich Clar. 
However, I wonder if someone could give me a key to more recent 
literature dealing with experimental and theoretical aspects of the 
temperature dependence of electronic transitions? - Thanks.

Yours, Jens >--<

Dear CCL'ers,
I  would like to ask you for a help. Is it possible to do G3mp2 
calculation on the transition state in G98a7?
If yes can someone advice me how to do that? Any help is appriciated.
The problem is  how to bypass first minimisation steps.

regards,

Dear Stefan,

thanks for the information. Maybe I should be more specific: I am 
primarily interested in the temperature dependence of 'normal' 
electronic transitions, like the alpha and p bands of benzenoid 
hydrocarbons:

"[Clar] distinguishes the alpha bands by the fact that they move to 
shorter wavelengths on lowering the temperature whereas the p and 
beta bands move to longer wavelengths." (Murrell, 1963)

Dear CCLers,
I have recently come across a problem. I have a molecule which is fairly
large which I have carried out an single point abinitio analysis using
direct SCF calculation Hyperchem states that it is using 787 basis functions
(I'm using 3-21g basis set) and 1296 primative gausians in the calculations.
This seems to run without any problems and took a little over 4 days.
Afterwards I ran a vibrational analysis which seems to have come to a halt
after 10 days computing, although stated to the contary by the computer, and
for two days now has remained on its final (50) iteration. Will it finish?
The log file does not give me any help. Is there anything which I can do? I
have written to the support people at Hyperchem but they have not replied.
I am using a Pentium IV with 768 MB ram and 80 GB of hard disk space.

date:   24th of April, 2003 (13:30 - 15:00)
place: Crowne Plaza Hotel, Heathrow, London, UK
  
    The prediction of biological, chemical and physical properties such as
reaction rates, UV-Visible & IR spectra, water solubility, vapour pressure,
polymer properties, environmental fate, etc., will be illustrated with
CAChe, a computer aided chemistry package for the experimental
chemist that runs on a desktop PC.
Prediction of reaction pathways, thermodynamics and kinetics will also
be discussed. Computer aided chemistry can be used to improve success
rate in the laboratory and speed up research by pre-screening candidates
and testing ideas, before investing valuable laboratory time.
This presentation reviews the expanding scope of computer-aided chemistry.
(presentation - 55 mins; demonstration - 25 mins)

I got a bit confused by the title of the book

Computational Chemistry: Introduction to the Theory and Applications of Molecular Quantum Mechanics

because I thought that Lewars wanted to tell us that comp. chem. is just Molecular Quantum Mechanics. But indeed, going to the 
web site I saw that that the correct title is:

Computational Chemistry: Introduction to the Theory and Applications of Molecular and Quantum Mechanics

This makes much more sense, because comp. chem. in my understanding is the art of using the entire suite of methods from 
Molecular Mechanics up to high level Quantum Mechanics, and of finding the right method for each problem.

Anyway, it is a bit of a pity that the book appears to lack a chapter on solvation methods. Comp. Chem. is an applied science, 
and the vast majority of applications are in the liquid systems.

I am an undergraduate taking part in a research project entitled "Quantum chemical methods for describing electronic excited states". I was wondering if anybody would be able to provide me with a list of the best and most widely used methods for describing electronic excited states and/or any literature suggestions on this topic. For the project I am taking in to account accuracy and computational costs (and any other parameter I am unaware of at present) on all sizes of molecules.

kind regards

Mark Goddard

Hello, I've got a problem running GAMESS MP2 calculation.
The system is FreeBSD with 512MB RAM, and swap size set
to 2000GB. But every time I run MP2 calculation (C16H16,
3-21G, symmetry is C1, RUNTYP=OPTIMIZE) I get "Increase
memory size" message. Swap using is less than 100Mb.
Has anybody met this problem (or even know how to solve
it?)
Thanks.

Computational Chemistry:
Introduction to the Theory and Applications of Molecular Quantum
Mechanics
by Errol Lewars.

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce this recently published book title, available as
both a hardback and paperback. Please find below some brief details as
well as an abbreviated Table of Contents.

If you require further information, please contact me or see:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Computational chemistry has become extremely important in the last
decade, being widely used in academic and industrial research. Yet there
have been few books designed to teach the subject to nonspecialists.

Computational Chemistry: Introduction to the Theory and Applications of
Molecular and Quantum Mechanics is an invaluable tool for teaching and
researchers alike. The book provides an overview of the field, explains
the basic underlying theory at a meaningful level that is not beyond
beginners, and it gives numerous comparisons of different methods with
one another and with experiment.

The following concepts are illustrated and their possibilities and
limitations are given:
* potential energy surfaces
* simple and extended Hückel methods
* ab initio, AM1 and related semiempirical methods
* density functional theory (DFT)

Topics are placed in a historical context, adding interest to them and
removing much of their apparently arbitrary aspect. The large number of
references, to all significant topics mentioned, should make this book
useful not only to undergraduates but also to graduate students and
academic and industrial researchers.


Table of Contents
Chapter 1: An outline of what computational chemistry is all about
Chapter 2: The concept of the potential energy surface
Chapter 3: Molecular mechanics
Chapter 4: Introduction to quantum mechanics in computational chemistry
Chapter 5: Ab initio calculations
Chapter 6: Semiempirical calculations
Chapter 7: Density functional calculations
Chapter 8: Literature, software, books and websites

Approximately 470 pages

Subject: TINKER 4.0 and Force Field Explorer are Available
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Dear Computational Chemistry List,

A major, new release of the TINKER Molecular Modeling Package,
version 4.0 dated February 2003, is available from the Ponder
Lab web site at http://dasher.wustl.edu/ or via anonymous ftp
download from dasher.wustl.edu in the /pub/tinker area.

TINKER is a modular, general package for molecular mechanics and
dynamics with some special facilities and parameter sets for
biopolymers. It currently supports several force fields, including
AMBER94, AMBER96, CHARMM19, CHARMM27, MM2, MM3, OPLS-UA, OPLS-AA
and our own AMOEBA polarizable atomic multipole force field. The
software contains many advanced algorithms for energy minimization,
molecular dynamics, distance geometry and global search, including
some methods that are not readily available elsewhere.

In addition, TINKER version 4.0 comes with a new Java GUI which
is named Force Field Explorer. This initial public release of the
GUI requires Java 1.4 or later and the Java3D extensions. It has
been tested on Linux and Windows, and should run correctly on any
platform that supports recent Java versions and Java3D. Mac OS X
does not currently support Java3D, and hence will not run the GUI.
Force Field Explorer is tightly integrated with the TINKER code
via a socket mechanism, and can be used to setup, launch, control
and visualize TINKER calculations and results.

TINKER and Force Field Explorer are distributed with full source
code, a User's Guide, and several examples and test molecule files.
Directions are supplied for building the package on most commonly
used CPU/OS combinations. Prebuilt executables limited to a maximum
of 10000 atoms are also provided for Linux, Windows and Mac OS X.

Please see the web site above for further information. We ask those
who make significant use of TINKER to complete, sign, and return by
regular mail the license form available on our web site. We keep all
the returned forms and use them to help justify further development
of the package. Comments, questions and suggestions for future
improvements should be sent to tinker@dasher.wustl.edu.

                        Best wishes, Jay Ponder
