Among others i got the following reply from help[at]gaussian.com

After checking this, if found that stable did find an instability in the 
wavefunction, so i did a re-optimisation (optimised within 12 steps) and 
then i ran a stable=(opt) calculation again. This time stable again found 
an instability, so again i did a reoptimisation. Only this time i didn't 
reach an optimised structure within 198 steps. When i look at the energy 
changes and the rms gradient i can only conclude that the inital geometry i 
started with after the last stable=(opt) calculation was more optimised 
than all other steps of this last optimisation calculation. This is a link 
to a screenshot of the report gaussview generates.

Hi!

I am trying to study the UV spectra of MnS, GeS2 and HgS. During my 
calculations with TD in g98W, I find that the LanL2dz basis set shipped 
with g98 is not good enough. So, I hope that I can get some useful 
information from you. Any suggestions or instructions will be appreciated 
and will be quated in my future works.

I am looking forward for your kindly help!

Sincerely your 

Xin, Liu

Hello fellow CCL'ers,
    
      I'm attempting some frequency (phonon) calculations with the VASP 
periodic DFT program. I'm hoping that those knowledgable with these type 
of calculations can help me out. After doing some reading, I think I 
have the basic theory down. First atom positions are perturbed from 
equilibrium to get the matrix, D(R), with elements of form 
d^2(V)/dr1dr2, or second partial derivatives of energy with respect to 
displacements 1 and 2. Next Bloch's theorem is applied to get the 
dynamical matrix: D(k) = Sum [ D(R)*exp[-i*dot(k,R)]. One can 
diagonalize the dynamical matrix to get the phonon spectrum. Does this 
sound right?
  
      In practice, VASP only calculates the spectrum at the gamma point, 
so in this case D(k) = D(R). In theory the code could be modified to 
include other k-points if needed. 
     
      What is the relationship between IR frequencies from experiment 
and the calculated phonon spectrum? Is there a special relationship 
between the IR frequencies and the gamma point?

      Any help, suggestions, comments, references, etc. are appreciated.

What about putting it to opensource (sourceforge.net)? Being a
UNIX-addicted person I neved had a look on Argus[Lab|Dock] but sounds as
an interesing project. Some of those people already using it would be
happy to jump into the code.

Hi CCLers,

Since I haven't received any response from Gaussian support since asking 
this question over a week ago, I thought I would try the list.

Does anyone know how to output all energies and eigenvalues for all of 
the k-points in a PBC calculation? I am trying to do a 1-dimensional 
calculation on their "test molecule" in the manual with a minimal basis 
set. I tried using IOp(5/98=1), which according to the manual should 
output everything, but it didn't work. I also tried #P for extra output 
and Pop=Full, hoping to recover more data, but without success.

Here is the input file:

%chk=neo5.chk
#P HF/3-21g PBC(NKPoint=5) IOp(5/98=1) Pop=Full

neoprene, [-CH2-CH=C(Cl)-CH2-] optimized geometry

In the output I am geting fields like this, which I believe are maybe 
supposed to be the HOMO and LUMO at each k (each Cycle appears to be a 
single k-point), but there is no reference to k anywhere and I don't 
know what all the extra symbols mean:

Has anyone had this same problem?

Also, if anyone knows how to use CPMD instead I would appreciate a rough 
draft of an input file if available.

Thank you,

Doug
