Subject: Calculation of Raman-spectra from ab-initio



Dear netter,

did someone know how to calculate Raman-spectra from ab-initio data?
I have done calculations with the GAMESS-program and would like to get the
Raman frequencies and intensities of the molecules. I know the feature in
GAUSSIAN, but is a public-domain, or a low cost program available?

Subject: Vibrational frequency tables


Keywords: ethanol IR Raman vibrational frequency

Greetings!

Can anyone tell me whether there is a molecular vibrations database
available (in print/in computer) which is more recent than T.
Shimanouchi (spelling?)'s "Tables of Molecular Vibrational Frequencies"
dated 1964? Or else, the E-mail address (if any) of the USA National
Standard Reference Data System of the National Bureau of Standards
(NSRDS-NBS)? The book is very useful, but I wonder whether there is an 
update.

More specifically, I am looking for references to the vibrational
frequencies and their assignments of ethanol (YES, common ethanol is
not in the tables!) and its deutero-substitutes. Currently I am reading
through CA (the paper version) so I really appreciate any references ;-)

Thank you in advance,

Hi!

I hope the following will help



The following references should provide you with very recent ECP's for
most of the periodic table. The comments I have heard from those who
have used them are rather favorable (comments limited to energetics and
geometries):

	Stevens et. al. J. Chem.Phys. 81 (12), Pt. II, 1984
	First and Second Row atoms

	Stevens et. al. Can. J. Chem. 70, 612, (1992)
	Third through Fifth row atoms. Some typos are known:

	Table 2: In RECP for second Vp-f component:
			-129.87594 should read -129.78594
	Table 4: Basis for Fe
			Cp term for 1sp should be -0.007940, not -0.07940
			asp term for 4sp should be 0.0410, not 0.410
	Table 7: Result for Be
			Eval with core a should read -1.01214, not -0.01214

	Cundari and Stevens J. Chem. Phys. 98 (7) 1993
	Lanthanides

I hope this is useful. These papers also discuss the variety of methods
available to generate ECP's, relativistic effects and references to ECP's
for DFT computations.

Good Luck

PLEASE FORWARD TO APPROPRIATE GROUPS

Foresight Prize in Molecular Nanotechnology

sponsored by the Foresight Institute 

A prize in the amount of $5000 will be awarded to the researcher whose
recent work has most advanced the development of molecular nanotechnology. 
The prize will be given at the Third Conference on Molecular
Nanotechnology, held in Palo Alto, California, on October 14-16, 1993. 
Young researchers are particularly encouraged to apply; however, no age
limit is set.

Submissions consist of one or more of the following:
*  an approved thesis or dissertation (bachelor's, master's, or Ph.D.)
*  an article published in a refereed journal
*  a paper approved for publication in a refereed journal
In addition, each submission must include a one-page summary of the work
and its relevance to the goal of molecular nanotechnology and/or molecular

supramolecular chemistry
computational chemistry and molecular modeling
natural molecular machines (e.g. flagellar motor, ribosome)
molecular machine design

Both experimental and theoretical work are eligible.  Special consideration
will be given to submissions clearly leading toward the construction of a
general-purpose molecular assembler.  Applicants wishing further
information on the field of the prize are referred to the book
_Nanosystems: Molecular Machinery, Manufacturing, and Computation_ (Wiley
Interscience, 1992).
  
The Selection Committee this year includes:

Subject: IRIX 5.0.1 & MOPAC 6.0??


Dear netters,

We recently upgraded one of our SGI servers to an Onyx running IRIX 5.0.1
and have seen a problem running MOPAC 6.0 with ESP options compiled in. 
Now when we run a MOPAC job, the machine is unable to execute any
other programs. Things just won't run! Never seen anything like this before.
Errors appear in the console window stating things like:

NOTICE: dupreg - temporarily insufficient memory to allocate virtual swap space,
 process buttonfly [1592]

	OR

NOTICE: growreg - temporarily insufficient memory to expand region, process 
sybyl [1596]

This does *not* happen on our other SGI server running IRIX 4.0.5. and if
we use a copy of MOPAC 6.0 without the ESP modules compiled in, there is 
no problem on the new Onyx...I'm now very suspicious that the problem 
has something to do with the new OS and the ESP modules in MOPAC 6.0. 
Anybody seen anything similar?
Thanks in advance for any help!

(with apologies to Steve Heller):

I have recently been acting as a software editor, primarily in the area of
computational chemistry and graphics software, for Scientific Computing
and Automation, a trade magazine.  Since Steve Heller has been so successful
using this forum to find reviewers, I thought I would borrow the idea.

I currently have one package for which I need a reviewer.  If you are 
interested in reviewing TableCurve for Windows, a complete statistical
analysis and graphing package from Jandel Scientific, please send me email
at the address below.  This is a ver large package which will take some time
to evaluate properly.  The review will be short (~3-6 double spaced manuscript
pages) and would be due in about 4-6 weeks.  Please only respond within 24 
hours of receiving this message -- I should have a reviewer by that time.

There are many more packages in the pipeline.  If this works as well for me
as it does for Steve, I will continue to solicit reviewersin this fashion.

Hello netters,

I am interested in computational packages for drug design (ones that include
minimization, database management, and pharmacophore prediction).  I've seen
vague mentions of a number of these at ACS meetings and such (too bad I've 
missed the latest), but want to find out from 'those in the know' what is good/
bad/ugly.

Can anyone tell me something about programs of this nature? I would especially be
interested in hearing from those on the list in the pharmaceutical industry.

Greetings,

Some time ago on the net there was a discussion of using NFS mounted

Could anyone comment on the use of FDDI NFS mounted drives. Is there

Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated.
