The workshop is part of the renowned CECAM series of workshops. CECAM (Centre Européen de Calcul Atomique et Moléculaire) is a European organization devoted to the promotion of fundamental research on advanced computational methods and to their application to important problems in frontier areas of science and technology. Elucidating the role and effect of different spin states on catalysis, even deciding which spin-state occurs naturally, is presently one of the most challenging endeavors both > from an experimental and theoretical point-of-view. This workshop will bring together theoretical and experimental experts to discuss this situation and propose best practices on how to deal with the problem in future scientific research. The list of renowned experts includes: J. Harvey (Bristol), M. Kaupp (Berlin), E. Münck (Carnegie-Mellon), L. Que Jr. (Minnesota), J.P. Perdew (New Orleans), P. Siegbahn (Stockholm), W. Thiel (MPI-Mülheim), among others. The full list of participants and speakers is given at: http://www.cecam.org/workshop-0-671.html There are a limited number of places available to attend this workshop and present your work, so please send us a message with a tentative title of your talk. The deadline for it is: 23 July. Marcel Swart Mikael Johansson (organizers) =================================== dr.

Dear CCL friends,
Could you please explain how to plot the molecular orbitals using NWChem. I used the following input for O2 molecule:

start M06L-O2
geometry
O =A0 =A0 0.000000 =A0 =A0 0.000000 =A0 =A0 0.000000
O =A0 =A0 0.000000 =A0 =A0 0.000000 =A0 =A0 1.300000
end
basis spherical
=A0O library STO-3g
end

scf
vectors output O2.movecs
end

dplot
=A0TITLE HOMO
=A0 vectors O2.movecs
=A0 LimitXYZ
=A0-3.0 3.0 10
=A0-3.0 3.0 10
=A0-3.0 3.0 10
=A0 spin alpha
=A0 orbitals view; 1;8
=A0 output homo.grd
end

task scf
task dplot

I have the .grd and .movecs files after the calculation. =A0Which software = (freely available) can plot the orbitals using these files?

Thanks
