Subject: AM1 in Gaussian


Hi all,

I am doing semi empirical calculations with the Gaussian 92 program.
When I do an AM1 calculation on water, I get the following output

 RHF-AM1 calculation of energy.
 MO and density RWFs will be updated.

Can anyone tell me in what units the final energy is given ?

Can anyone help me with this ?

Quoted from the XYZ file specification man page:

  Each line of text describing a single atom must  contain  at
  least  four  fields of information, separated by whitespace:
  the atom's type (a short string of alphanumeric characters),
  and  its  x-,  y-, and z-positions. Optionally, extra fields
  may be used to specify a charge for the atom, and/or a  vec-
  tor  associated  with  the  atom.  If an input line contains
  five or eight fields, the fifth field is interpreted as  the
  atom's  charge;  otherwise, a charge of zero is assumed.  If
  an input line contains seven or eight fields, the last three
  fields are interpreted as the components of a vector.  These
  components should be specified in angstroms.

You mean that's not clear?  ;)
--
Here are some examples (where Vx,Vy,Vz are the 
x,y, and z components of some vector):

-
hydrogen atom with x,y,z defined (charge zero is implied):

H  1.0  1.0  1.0                    [4 fields]
-
hydrogen atom with x,y,z,charge defined:

H  1.0  1.0  1.0  0.1               [5 fields]
-
hydrogen atom with x,y,z,charge,Vx,Vy,Vz defined:

H  1.0  1.0  1.0  0.1 0.5 0.5 0.5   [8 fields]
-
hydrogen atom with x,y,z,Vx,Vy,Vz defined 
(charge zero is implied):

H  1.0  1.0  1.0      0.5 0.5 0.5   [7 fields]

Hope that this helps. If not, send mail to xmol@msc.edu
and we'll try to provide a more concrete example.

Specific answer is:

send your mail request to CHEMISTRY-REQUEST@ccl.net
not to CHEMISTRY@ccl.net

Comment:

     I also use computational chemistry/NMR to study carbohydrates and
I think you will find the osc list a worthwhile subscription.
Additionally, I would like to draw attention below to a recent newsgroup
that Iain Wilson and I have very recently launched in the 
'glycosciences' which will include modeling/structural areas, particularly
biology-related problems. Also, an NMR group was formed under the bionet 
hierarchy earlier in the year; it has been relatively quiet.

     Being primarily a structure/modeling kind of person, I am 
interested in seeing this kind of information gathered for the group and 
am soliciting volunteers to contribute to this project.  The work 
could include development of a glycostructural FAQ, gathering of 
location-site addresses, access procedures for structural information 
and databases, writing of structural Web pages with links to Glyco-
related URLs, and possibly the eventual construction of our own 
databases. Structural information can include sequences, models, 
crystal structures, spectra, or parameters.

Electronic Newsgroup for the Glycosciences

The GLYCOSCI/bionet.glycosci electronic newsgroup is ready, having been 
passed by 165 yes votes to 1 no vote. The GLYCOSCI newsgroup can be accessed 
using USENET software - if such is available through your local computing 
service. If bionet.glycosci does not appear in the list of available 
newsgroups at your site, ask your news system administrator to enable the 
group at your site. Through your newsreading softeware you may have a 
'subscribe' function which loads newsgroups into a default list. 

Alternatively, you can subscribe via electronic mail by sending the relevant 
command to one of the BIOSCI sites as follows:

If you are located in Europe, Africa or Central Asia send the command (in 
the body of your mail message - leave the subject line blank)

SUB bionet-news.bionet.glycosci

to MXT@dl.ac.uk

If you are located in the Americas or the Pacific Rim send the command (in 
the body of your mail message)

subscribe glycosci

to biosci-server@net.bio.net

With e-mail subscriptions, you will receive an introductory document 
advising you on where to contact in the event of problems, how to post and 
reply to messages, cancel your subscription or look at the archives.

You can post to the group either through USENET software or by mailing 
glycosci@daresbury.ac.uk (if you are located in Europe, Africa or Central 
Asia) or glycosci@net.bio.net (if you are located in the Americas or the 
Pacific Rim). Do not post a message to both sites - otherwise everyone on 
the list will receive two copies of your message.

The charter and archives of the group can be accessed by FTP (file transfer 
protocol), gopher or WWW (world wide web) at net.bio.net. If you wish to 
access the charter or archives by WWW, the URL is 
gopher://gopher.bio.net:70/11/GLYCOSCI.

Subject: equilibrium and MD of liquids


        I'm engaged in trying to obtain the solubility of some large
molecules in different solvents to understand the effect of solvent shape
and size.  The approach I'm trying to use is to bring a large periodic box
of solvent molecules containing a single solute molecule into equilibrium
and obtain the energy of the system suing MD.  As a start I am trying to
bring just a large periodic box of solvent into equilibrium.  Suffice it to
say I've found some interesting effects.  In particular it would seem that
it is very easy to get hung up in local miminima.  I seem to get get
convergence to a global minimum much faster if I compress the model into a
smaller volume than desired, do a little relaxation and then increase the
volume to the final value for the full MD run.   Is anyone aware of any
other tricks one can do to increase the speed of convergence to equilibrium,
or more important avoid falling into a local minimum.  I would appreciate
any pointers or references I could get.

Thanks in advance

Perhaps you meant `melting' and you probably already know this, but
the heat of fusion (aka heat of melting) and heat of crystallization
differ by the heat of solution.  Often one is approximated by the
other but they are different thermodynamically.

-----------------------------
Eric-The heat of fusion would be a difficult problem because you would
have to have a good model of the liquid state structure.  The heat of
sublimation(crystal to vapor transformation) is easier to compute. We've
discussed this in JACS 1994,116,455-470(see p. 458 in particular). Basically
what you do is to compute the interaction energy between an aribitrary
molecule in the packed crystal structure and all the other molecules using
an appropriate atom-atom potential forcefield.  We have code written for
this using the MM2 forcefield or the CFF91 forcefield. The code requires
packing the structure using CHEMX/CHEMLIB modeling package.  If you have
these, I can send you the rest.

I am doing research using atomic force and scanning tunneling
microscopy and would like to know is there a way to predict the orientation that molecule will form as a monolayer on top of a surface when the greatest intermolecular interactions 
are hydrogen bonding. I am putting guanine on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and would like to try to predict the superstructure that will occur in solution on the surface as a monolayer. Thank in advance.
