Hi, I have a very basic question for your opinion. When a molecule absorbs a photon, it will be excited to a excited state that has the same atomic geometry but different electron density distribution. I wonder how fast this process is? i.e. how fast the electron density distribution change from the ground state to excited state?

Dear all,

We are trying to perform a single point calculation on a fairly large system
using G03. We have a disk-space error in spite of the availability of much more
free disk space than required in the error message.

This is a neutral closed-shell system with 1014 basis functions, 1548 primitive
gaussians, and 272 electrons.  We are running it on a 64-bit SuSe9.1 Linux Box
with 100 GB empty disk space.  Since this is not a 32-bits system, the file
size should not be a problem.

The following is the Gaussian03 input line:
============================================
#p MP2(full, verystingy)/6-311++g** output=wfn density=current
MaxDisk=65GB scf=(MaxCycle=200, tight) 6d 10f

After the convergence of the SCF, the job is aborted, and
the following is the error we get:

========================================================

We tried to run the job on a cluster with RedHat Linux where the scratch files
were broken, each into 6 x 2GB-files, but we got exactly the same error message
despite the availability of a huge disk space.

Can someone help with this? I will summarize.

Thank you very much in advance.

Cheers,

Cherif

Dear Jelena,

as agreed on we did the TURBOMOLE/COSMO optimization of the geometry 
optimization of your large bioorganic
molecule supramolecular structure, which you had problems with using PCM 
and Gaussian. As expected, the geometry optimization was no technical 
problem. It converged from your start structure without any problem. The 
complex had
 NUMBER OF ATOMS:          112
 DEGREES OF FREEDOM:          330
 INTERNAL COORDINATES:          379
We performed a BP DFTcalculation with TZVP basis set resulting in 1413 
atom orbitals.

The calculation took about 9 days on a single 3MHz CPU. It took 145 
geometry optimization steps.

As a result we may conclude, that optimization of such complexes with 
the dielectric continuum solvation model COSMO is technically doable 
with no problems using TURBOMOLE. Obviously, such calculations are for 
such floppy supramolecular complexes are time consuming.

Best regards

Andreas

Dear CCL readers,

I do geometry optimizations on ~60 atom systems using B3LYP and B3PW91 hybrid 
functionals on the 6-31G* basis set. I do gas phase optimizations without any problem, but when it comes to SCRF solvation (DMSO, CDCl3, etc.), my jobs often  crash, with error messages like:

AdVTs1: ISph=  830 is engulfed by JSph=  831 but Ae(  830) is not yet zero!
 Error termination via Lnk1e in /usr/local//g03/l301.exe at Sun Feb 27 01:15:48 2005.

or

 BldSpC: Error generating genealogic tree for sphere  894 at level 15
 Error termination via Lnk1e in /usr/local//g03/l301.exe at Sat Feb 26 09:50:34 2005.

I believe this is related to the solvation model.
Another interesting feature of these solvated optimizations is that when it completed without error it resulted in almost identical final structure as in gas phase (with identical initial structures), which is, however, possible but unlikely considering a 4 residue peptide. Frequency calculations, howewer, on the almost superimposable output structures revealed major differences, not only in frequencies, but IR intensities and rotational strengths. Interestingly, gas phase calculations reproduced experimental results better, than optimizations utilizing the SCRF method.

So, my question is how good or reliable is this SCRF method incorporated in G03? Is there any reliable solvation model within G03? What do you suggest?
Thank You


Attila Borics

Hi Cherif,
you can try and split the .rwf files in smaller that 2 GB increments, 1.9 is good.
As well, try to monitor your .rwf in the scratch directory during calculation to
see at what point the jobs is terminated.
