Mailer: Elm [revision: 66.25]



Concerning GAMESS (US-Version 92)...
We have the following problem (and dont laugh! :-) ):
We want to minimize energy of the ethylen molecule to
get firm with the programm, so we must create a z-Matrix, but ...


We are not able to create a z-Matrix for Ethylen!

What GAMESS do is, that it creates the z
z-axis in the C-H bond, if
we have the following $DATA Group:

$DATA

X
C 1 rCX
H 2 rCH aXCH

rCX=0.67
rCH=1.06
aXCH=120
 $END

It wont even work without the Dummy!

If you have any idea, please mail us!

Dear Netters,

A couple of days ago I sent the following message to the list:

I would like to thank all the netters who replied so promptly and
helpfully.
Below is a summary of their responses.

GAMESS does this for RHF, ROHF, UHF and GVB wave functions.
Energy (conventional or direct) and Gradient parallelize very well 
(Speedup of more than 3.5 with 4 Processors is possible), analytic 
hessians, however, are problematic, because of high disk demand and 
unparallelized CP-HF.

MC-SCF wave functions can run parallel only in parts.

Hope that helps. If you want to have more information, contact me.

Hi,

	Parallel-GAMESS will do the UHF optimization in parallel
on a bunch of different parallel platforms.  To date, we have run it
on an IBM SP1, KSR-1, CM-5, Paragon, iPSC/860, and the Iowa State
folks have run it across heterogeneous Ethernetworks of UNIX
workstations.  I believe there exists a version for the nCUBE.
	The above refers t the US version of GAMESS.  I also believe
there is good parallel capability in the UK version, although I
have not used it.

I think that Gaussian 92 is available as a parallel processing package. It will

  GAMESS (the US version) is currently parallelized for UHF (and several
other) wavefunctions.  The UMP2 is not yet parallelized (although the RMP2 is).
GAMESS also does not yet have the capability to do any MP2 optimizations
except in a very crude manner.
  The code is free but you do need to sign a "release" form stating that
you will not distribute the code.  To get a copy, send an e-mail to

As long as the helix is electrically neutral both results should agree!

Subject: Global talks, presentations and posters forum


How many times have you gone to a conference with parallel sessions,
and wanted to be in two places at once? Or missed a speaker for one
reason or another? If your presentation can be mounted on a WWW
server, why not offer the URL of the talk to a global talks page,
and then we can all share the talk!  I have started up a home page for
this;

http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/talks/

This will introduce the concept, and show three entries already added.
Registration for the page is via a FORMS entry. Just put entries in all
the fields and you will be added automatically to the list. You will need
a WWW browser which supports forms (Currently e.g. NCSA Mosaic
for X-Windows, V2.4, or WinMosaic 2.0a4. A Mac version is expected
soon).

Please note the following provisos;

1) Entries are not currently tested. Hence make sure you do not mistype
them.
2) To remove an entry, you will have to e-mail me. If I (or others)
find that a particular URL does not respond after a suitable period,
I reserve the right to remove it.
3) I reserve the right to remove "inappropriate" entries. We are expecting
scientifically sound talks which have been/will be presented in public to
an audience at a specified location and date. I am prepared to consider
conference posters, but only if the organisers have given you
permission.
4) Currently there is no attempt to sub divide by subject. If this concept
is successful, we may wish to consider doing this. We may also add
a separate "poster" category.
5) Readers should be aware that no "peer review" mechanism is currently
applied to these talks (other than the fact that they have been or will be
presented in public),. There is no "time-stamping" mechanism. It
is expected that the authors will in fact edit the talks, correct errors etc
if they wish to ensure they do not date.

I am happy to consider other aspects of this forum that I might not have
thought about, and any other general, legal or ethical issues that might
arise!

If you do mail me, please put GLOBAL TALKS in the subject field
so that I can filter these messages out.

Hello world,

To my knowledge there is no option for GAMESS (US) to do atom-atom 
partitionings of the electronic energy.
By this partitioning I mean that the total electronic energy, as can be 
obtained using the classic (i.e. well known) RHF formula, is split up 
into different atom-atoms terms (i.e. atom1-atom1, atom1-atom2, and 
atom2-atom2 for a binuclear molecule.)
Because I thought it might be interesting for me to have a look at these 
terms, I headed off to find out if I could not write a small program to 
do this, or to change the FORTRAN code of gamess (US) as to fit my needs.

However, I am not an experienced programmer in FORTRAN (yet). So I ran 
into trouble (I have studied the first part of my first book on FORTRAN 
for the first time), so it is not easy for me change the GAMESS code.

Here is what I did...

I have always been programmig in Basic, or Pascal or C(++), or some even 
more exotic languages, so as we have a RS6000 workstation I started 
writing a C program.

I have changed the NPRINT=3 option in the GAMESS code and the rungms 
executable, so that files are saved with the density, fock and hcore 
matrices.

These files are read in by the program and changed as to yield some 
temporary files that may be used in calculations.

So when I now make a calculation I specify NPRINT=3 and get the normal 
output file plus a $JOB.at file in which I find the atom-atom parts.

Everything is written in a very simple C program, because I needed the 
results asap, so I did not care for any mumbo-jumbo optimising, or 
elegance (except for the elegance of using indents and such).

All this stuff has been done on the 1991 version of GAMESS (they wouldn't 
let me change the new one.)

My question is now : does anybody have an example of a calculation (with 
at least 10 **ten** basisfunctions) so that I can control my results.
I have confronted my findings with some theoretical facts that have to be 
obeyed, and they do obey...( I off course need to know which Basis Set is 
used...)

So if anybody could fax me a result, or if anybody has a reference to an 
article in which the atom-atom splittimgs are proposed, I would be very 
grateful if she/he could inform me on this matter...

P.S. when I have studied the whole FORTRAN book I will try to change the 
1993 version in the right way (namely through the FORTRAN code of GAMESS(US)).

Any help is mighty welcome,

Regards,

Hi

If you have a set of charges qi, on atomic centers (xi,yi,zi), for
i=1,natom, isn't it simpler to transform the coordinates to the principal
axis system and do:

   	dx = sum over all atoms qi*xi
   	dy = sum over all atoms qi*yi
   	dz = sum over all atoms qi*zi

   	D = sqrt(dx**2 + dy**2 + dz**2)

Dear netters,

	I need a routine which can translate torsion angles into cartisian
coordinates.  The user does not need to input bond lengths and bond angles.
The program should be able to estimate them.  It should look like a molecular 
builder in the sence that it can put together the fragments with fixed bond 
lengths and bond angles, but take torsion angles as variables.  I would 
imagine that there exists this kind of routine for some specific categories 
of molecule such as proteins and DNA.  My question is wether there exists 
such routine for a general organic molecule?  What about availability?

	Thank you in advance!

Dear Netters

    I am hoping that someone on this list will be able to help me.
I've recently pulled a routine (DGELS) from lapack, formerly eispack, 
which is suposed to do a general linear least squares fit.  However, 
when "netlib" sends a routine to me it sends only 1 routine at a time. 

    Working on a piece by piece basis I have been able to retrieve
a total of 21 routines that are called by the DGELS package, but 
there are at least 10 more routines that I have not been able to
retrieve--that is netlib won't send them.

    Can anyone tell me where I can get ahold of the LAPACK routines:

dlamc2  
dtrsm
dtrmm
dtrmv
dgemm
dgemv
dcopy
dger
dscal
dnrm2

   The first 9 on the list are subroutines and dnrm2 is a function.

The easiest interface to netlib is xnetlib, an X-windows interface
that allows you to select all dependent routines interactively. 
And then copy them locally with a single command. 

Without this package, I imagine that you will have to get the routines
one-at-a-time or request netlib to mail you all of LAPACK.

Randall, 

Try to get the program xnetlib (running on unix work stations under X11). 
It can be found using archie. According to information on lapack under
xnetlib, the following holds:

For xnetlib users only, there is available a file
"lapack/lapack.tar.Z" which is claimed to contain the complete package
as a tar compressed file. 

I did not check, however, whether the sources that you miss are really 
included.

Best regards

  What if the number of positive charge centers is not equal to the
number of negative charge centers.
  As for Ravi's idea of finding the principal axis, I donot quite
understand how this helps simplify the problem. An explanation would
be appreciated.

While Thomas Pierce is right about xnetlib being the simplest
interface to netlib, the netlib mail server normally sends the routine
requested _and_ its dependents.  This behavior is "switched off" by
using "send only" instead of "send".

The "problem" here is different.  LAPACK, like its predecessors
LINPACK and EISPACK, are built on top of the BLAS (Basic Linear
Algebra Subprograms).  This is a separate library, also available on
netlib (in source form), as well as from many vendors in the form of
an optimized library.  All but one of the routines Randy Boehm needs
is in BLAS.  The other is probably an LAPACK support routine which may
well be packaged in a different subdirectory of the LAPACK hierarchy
from the "working" routines.

I believe this is covered in the documentation available with LAPACK.

Subject: MM and diastereomers


Matthew Stahl asked if MM can be used to calculate the relative energies of
diastreomers.  In principle yes, for diastereomers (unlike enantiomers)
are essentially just ordinary isomers.  The problem is that they often
differ only slightly in energy.  Here are somesample results:
FMeHC-CFMeH,meso diastereomer, C-F/C-Me anti conformer (A) vs
threo diast, C-F/C-Me anti conf (B):
MM2    A, 0.09 kJ    B, 0 kJ (RELATIVE E's)
AM1    A, 0.2  kJ    B, 0 
3-21G  A, -5.59 kJ   B, 0
For Z- and E- (i.e cis and trans) 1,2-diFethene (E/Z isomers are diastereomers
too):
MM2    Z, -5.10 kJ    E, 0
AM1    Z,  0.0  kJ    E, 0.0 kJ (sic)
3-21G  Z,  5.88 kJ    E, 0
6-31G* Z,  1.13 kJ    E, 0
====
As with any calc, the only way to be confident you can trust your results is to
see how well analogous cases match experiment.

Subject: diastereomers or enantiomers - THE ANSWER


On the question of comparing the energies of "diastereomers", I followed
the few publicly-posted answers and then the subsequent summary by Matthew
Stahl.  Although this discussion is now several days old, I believe that 
there is  something else to contribute;  I do not usually post answers
publically but in this case I think there would be interest.


Let us be very careful:

Suppose that our molecule has a single asymmetric centre; if we invert
at that centre and obtain the "enantiomer", then we have an energetically
equivalent structure.  That much we are all agreed upon.  This should
hopefully be irrespective of the force-field. One hopes that the Hamiltonian
is symmetric w.r.t. inversion of all particle coordinates 
[(x,y,z,) -> (-x,-y,-z)] and in any case, as has been pointed out, this
operation preserves inter-particle distances.  [By way of an aside, although
the traditional way of obtaining an enantiomer, is to 'reflect' in a plane,
as is well known, a reflection operation is the composite of inversion through
a center and a 2-fold rotation - neither of which alter the energy.]


But, what happens if 2 chiral centres are present?  (One may refer to a standard
text-book of  organic chemistry, e.g., March, if one is not familiar with the
terms enantiomer and 'diastereomer'.)  There are 4 possible isomers (assuming
that the two centres do not contain identical sets of substituents).

Now,  let us write them schematically:

     V           V                     V             V
     |           |                     |             |
   U-C-W       W-C-U                 U-C-W         W-C-U
     |           |                     |             |
   X-C-Z       Z-C-X                 Z-C-X         X-C-Z
     |           |                     |             |
     Y           Y                     Y             Y
 
     A           A'                    B             B'

Note that A and A' are enantiomers,   as are B and B'.

But the relationship of, say, A and B, is that they are diastereomers.  
"diastereomers are stereoisomers which are not enantiomers."

For all 4 of these structures, the 'bonded' interactions are the same, and 
on that basis they will have identical energies.   But it is the non-bonded
interactions which discriminate.  Note that the molecules A and A', in the
configurations shown all have V---Y, W---Z and U---X  _non-bonded_ interactions,
whereas the pair B and B' have   V---Y, U---Z and W---X non-bonded matches.
(You can 'rotate' each of the C(XYZ) or C(UVW) centres but you can't get the 
same set of triple pair-wise interactions.)

It is thus to be expected that the relative energies of diastereomers will
depend upon the nature of the force-field used.  Thus a very crude model,
which does not contain the longer-range, non-bonded interactions will not
distinguish energetically between diastereomers.

The message is thus that, when more than one chiral centre is present, 
inversion at a single centre introduces changes in long-range pair-wise
interactions which may well bea manifested in changes in the potential
energy.

I am looking for an application to convert a z-matrix -> cartesian
coordinates.
The source code in C or Pascal would be very convenient.
If not an application... maybe an algorithm.

Thanks.

Jim Vito

As was noted by a previous poster, the definition of the dipole moment vector
is:

      mu_x = SUM_i q_i * (x_i - x0)
      mu_y = SUM_i q_i * (y_i - y0)
      mu_z = SUM_i q_i * (z_i - z0)

where mu_x, mu_y, mu_z are the components of the dipole moment vector mu along
the x, y, z axes (respectively); q_i is the charge of entity i; x_i, y_i, z_i
are the cartesian coordinates of entity i; and x0, y0, z0 are the cartesian
coordinates of a reference point.  For electrically neutral molecules mu is
independent of the reference point.  Otherwise the molecule's center of mass
is conventionally used as (x0,y0,z0).  The molecule's principle axes provide
three convenient orthogonal vectors that may be used to define the x, y, and
z axes.

The equations above are the correct ones to use, and are just as easy (if not
easier) to program than some of the schemes provided by other posters (I assume
the original poster did not want to do these calculations by hand).

Hi netters:

Does anyone have macromolecular forcefield parameters (e.g., AMBER, 
GROMOS, CHARMm) for acethylcholine?  Please respond directly to me. Thank 
you.
