I started using the NBO analysis tool (NBO5.G with G03), and came across a rather confusing problem. Although I searched the list archive, I couldn't find any discussion related to this topic, but I might have just overlooked it accidentally. However, I think this can be easily answered. When trying to save the NBOs to the checkpoint file for later visualization with Chemcraft, using the SAVENBOS keyword, it just doesn't work. With the NBO3.1 version, this procedure didn't cause any trouble, and the following lines were printed at the end of the file, after the NBO output. Sorting of NBOs: 8 7 4 6 5 1 3 2 9 26 Sorting of NBOs: 23 27 28 25 24 16 15 14 10 22 Sorting of NBOs: 21 11 12 17 13 18 19 20 Reordering of NBOs for storage: 8 7 4 6 5 1 3 2 9 26 Reordering of NBOs for storage: 23 27 28 25 24 16 15 14 10 22 Reordering of NBOs for storage: 21 11 12 17 13 18 19 20 Labels of output orbitals: CR CR BD BD BD BD BD BD LP BD* BD* BD* BD* BD* BD* RY* RY* RY* RY* RY* Labels of output orbitals: RY* RY* RY* RY* RY* RY* RY* RY* In the NBO5.G, these lines are missing, indicating, that no NBOs were actually reordered and stored. Indeed, after reading the orbitals into the log file, the visualisation of these orbitals reveals their 'normal ' shape, not NBO-type. Again, with NBO3.1 this can be done without problems. So now I wonder, if I ignored something here, or if this is a known issue? Here is my input for a simple example: %NProc=2 %chk=CH3NH2_NBO.chk %mem=1024MB # rhf/3-21g gfprint gfinput IOP(6/7=3) pop(FULL,NBOREAD,SAVENBOS) GUESS=(READ) GEOM=CHECK Methylamine...RHF/3-21G//Pople-Gordon standard geometry 0 1 $NBO $END Any suggestions are much appreciated, also any links to existing discussions about this topic.

I plot such simulated spectra with Gausssum which provides the absorption coefficient, besides the oscillator strength, versus the wavelength of the excitation state. I am particularly interested to know which expression is used by Gausssum to obtain the absorption coefficient from the parameters that can be read from a Gaussian calculation.
