Has anyone subscribing to this forum heard of any research on affecting 
the spontaneous fission rate of one of the heavy elements through 
chemical reactions.  As I understand, it is theoretically possible but 
the problem in reality lies with how slow chemical reactions are relative 
to the dynamics of the nucleus.

Hello,

Based on raw data from Jan Labanowski (jkl@ccl.net) I composed a set of WWW
pages on chemistry related mailing lists. For each list there is a short
description, the name of the editor, the subscription address, the location of
the archives.
These pages can be found at

http://bionmr1.rug.ac.be/chemistry/overview.html

Jan Labanowski and I agreed that I'll keep this list up-to-date. So if there
any additions, corrections, remarks mail them to me (Kris.Boulez@rug.ac.be).

Kris,

Dear Kamal,
We are using a program based on Self Consistent THeory
without any correlation effects, called Monstergauss.
With the program one can break down the interaction
energies into various components as to with dominant
force holds the molecules together qualitatively. I am not sure
whether it would suite your need.
If you require a copy of this program I can email to you with
some references.

	I, too, am interested in calculating pi-pi interactions, but I have
not yet published anything. There was an article in J. Comp. Chem last August
or so about Aryl-Aryl charge transfer complexes, but I do not have the reference
at hand.  I am doing similar calculations, but I have just started.

SUBJECT: Pt parameter
Dear all:
Two weeks ago, I posted a question regarding the information of
Platinum parameters and base set for Gaussian calculation.  So
far I got two responses ( I will summarize below).  However, if
you have any more suggestion, please send it to me or the net,
thank you very much again.

     There are some Pt bases in Huzinaga's 'Green' Book:
  "Gaussian basis sets for molecular calculations",
   Physical science data Number 16, Pub: Elsevier 1984.
       John Waite (CHEM8@VAX.YORK.AC.UK)
You of course know, that already in the G90 program there are some
RECP and basis sets for Platinum. There are also other parameters
awailable (Pseudopotentials Durand&Barthelat, Stoll&Preuss, Pitzer&
Ermler, Christiansen etc.)
The main problem is, that You have to intoduce both, the correlation
and the ralativistic into Your calculaton in order to gain reasonable
results. This may be a limiting factor according the system size. Due to
the N**7 problem You will very fast run out of the disk/memory limits.
Recently, we did MP2, CCSD(T) and DFT calculations on some M+(CnHm)
systems (up to C6) and found the pertubational treatment suitable just
for pure dative bonding. With platinum You have to take care about the
nearly degenerated s1d9 and d10 states and MCSCF is strongly recommented.

Anyway, I could try to find and send You few other references. However,
try first with the Hay&Wadt RECP of gaussian

Dear netters,

i was wondering if there is a customized interface of the NBO-tool
(natural bond orbital analysis by Reed/Weinhold) for using in connection
with 'native' DFT-codes (like DeFT, deMon, DGauss, ...) as available
for common ab-initio/semiempirical codes (GaussianXX, GAMESS, Mopac ...).

I've realized that within G92/DFT this tool is available also for dft
calculations. Unfortunately I need this tool in connection with one of the 
above mentioned 'native' dft codes.

Though the ks-orbitals do not have the same physical meaning as the canonical
hf-orbitals, is such a tool reliable for the description e.g. the metal-ligand
interaction ?

Are there other tools (maybe density difference maps, fragment orbital analysis, ...)
for a qualitative and/or quantitative analysis of such interactions ?

Any suggestions or hints are grateful appreciated.

Many thankx in advance

	Peter

NOT ALWAYS YES!: the surface tension at the end of the tube may resist waters
to spill over.

Subject: FISSION IN A FLASK


There was a question on the Net today or yesterday about this.  In his book
"Cold Fusion: the Scientific Fiasco of the Century", Huizinga refers to an
off-the record remark by one of the protagonists that palladium in an 
electrochemical cell may be undergoing fission.  The view among physicists
is probably that this kind of thing is even less likely than 
(electro)chemically induced fusion.
Actually, *some* nuclear processes are not quite independent of chemical
influences: electron capture radioactive decay, a la one of the isotopes
of potassium, is clearly somewhat affected by the proximity of electrons,
and thus by the chemical state of the atom.

One more thing...

I also very much encorage students to send letter in support of CCL.
One of the points which I am selling in the proposal is the educational
value of the list.

Sorry again for taking the bandwidth on non CC related issues...

Columbus, Jan. 30, 1995

Dear Netters,          

I need your help, and this is serious...

With the growing size and scope of the Computational Chemistry List I can
no longer maintain it as a hobby. I need resources and help not only in the
coordination, but also in development of the list... The current
format of the list is outdated and cannot keep up with the explosive
list growth, expectations of subscribers, and new exciting technologies
in computer networks.

Last summer I submitted a proposal for the support of the list, and though it
has not yet been rejected, it has not been funded either. I am still waiting.
The bottom line is this:
If I do not get funding for this project, I will not be able to continue
to coordinate the Computational Chemistry List. The cutoff time is
scheduled for summer 1995. Obviously, I will try to find a new home
for the list, but you all realize that with more than 2000 subscribers,
1 GByte/week of files ftp-ed from the CCL archives, and hundreds of WWW
and gopher logins every day, the number of sites able to cope with
such traffic is limited. 

You can help me by sending me a letter in support of the list. Not only the
number but also the contents of these letters will matter. So please write
why you think the list is important and why it should be supported.

Please send the letters (on your organization letterhead) to me:
  Jan Labanowski, Ph.D.
  Ohio Supercomputer Center
  1224 Kinnear Rd
  Columbus, OH 43212

It may help if you read the proposal itself. The directory
   /pub/chemistry/ccl-proposal
has been created in the CCL archives. The following files are there
   25049  summary-300dpi.ps    -- 600 dpi PostScript of summary
   28271  summary-600dpi.ps    -- 300 dpi PostScript of summary
    4855  summary.tex          -- LaTeX version of summary
    4874  summary.txt          -- plain text version of summary
 
  106954  proposal-300dpi.ps   -- 600 dpi PostScript of proposal
  111746  proposal-600dpi.ps   -- 300 dpi PostScript of proposal
   35464  proposal.tex         -- LaTeX version of proposal
   38334  proposal.txt         -- plain text version of proposal
You can download them via anonymous ftp (www.ccl.net), 
gopher (www.ccl.net, port 73), or electronic mail by sending
a message:
     select chemistry
     cd ccl-proposal
     get summary.txt   (for example)
     get proposal.txt
     quit
to MAILSERV@ccl.net. These files are also accessible via the CCL home page:
    URL:  http://www.ccl.net/chemistry.html

Thank you in advance for your support, and I will appreciate your comments
(but please excuse me if I am not able to answer them right away).
I understand how busy you are, but this is your chance to help me save
the list and transform it into a much better resource than it currently is.

Greetings!

I am writing to encourage (and facilitate) your participation in the
1995 Gordon Research Conference on Quantitative Structure-Activity
Relationships which will be held in Tilton, New Hampshire (USA) between
the evening of Sunday, August 6th and noon on Friday, August 11th.

I have appended an abbreviated indication of the stimulating program
which was organized by our Vice-Chairman, Dr. Herschel Weintraub.  A
more complete listing and a copy of the GRC Application Form will be
published in the first February issue of _Science_.  

This year, for the first time, the GRC is also accepting Applications
via e-mail.  For your convenience, I have also appended a copy of the
electronic version of the GRC Application Form.  If you wish to apply 
via e-mail, please send a *neatly excised* copy of the appended form to:
sandie@grcmail.grc.uri.edu  (NOT TO ME!).

Please note that both the Application Form and the abbreviated Program 
indicate that poster presentations by GRC attendees are encouraged.  If 
you wish to present a poster, please be CERTAIN to append an abstract to 
your Application Form.  Your abstract will be posted on the (4 ft by 8 ft, 
vertically oriented) poster-board which will be reserved in your name.

This year, the standard "Fixed Fee" is $510 which includes not only the
Conference registration but room (double-occupancy) and board as well.
Chartered bus transportation between Boston's Logan Airport and the
Conference site will be available for approximately $35 (round trip).

I look forward to greeting old friends and making new friends in Tilton
this summer.  I hope to see you there.

Sincerely,

Bob Pearlman

Subject: ERROR IN INFO RE SYNTHESIS PROGRAM


A few days ago, in response to a query, I said that an org synth program
sold by ACS was advertised in C&EN, Sept 1994 (or 1993).  The correct
location is C&EN 1993 Nov 15, page 46 [an unnumbered advertisement page].
The program is SynTree, $145 for the PC or Mac version (price for ACS
members).  It's made by Trinity Software, PO Box 960, Campton, NH 03223;
phone 603 726-4641, FAX -3781.

Can anyone give me names of people at Chapel Hill who do molecular modelling and 
drug design?  I believe thay have a virtual reality setup which can be used to 
dock putative inhibitors into active sites.

Cheers,

Subject: Summary: MD trajectory analysis



Netters:

Here is a summary of the responses I got for a request for molecular
dynamics trajectory analysis software.  I was interested in a program
which can do the same things as "Curves, Dials, and Windows", 
part of the "Molecular Dynamics Analysis Toolchest" of Ravishanker and
Beveridge at Wesleyan University.  The MD Toolchest is between versions
and so is (unfortunately) temporarily unavailable.

Hi Leif,

I don't know exactly what you are looking for and on which platform
you plan to run the software but I have a program named SCARECROW
which could be helpful.

If you are interested you can have a look at it either through
WWW or ftp.

or

Dear Dr. Olson
        You could try to run NUPARM, after separating all the
coordinate files in separate pdb files, naming them as file#.pdb.
The program NUPARM is available in Brookhaven Protein Data Bank,
however I am sending you separately a latest version of it along 
with a sample c-shell script to run NUPARM for a number of coordinate 
files.  This script would create structure data for all the coordinate 
files in different files, named after the coordinate file.  You may 
use unix "grep" and "cut" commands later to pick out the selected 
structural parameters from the name#.prm files.  
        Best wishes and please feel free to call me if you have any 
questions/problems in running this program.

        I have an analysis program which you can script to
run at the end of whatever cycles, it doesn't output like dials
and window but it does give all complementary parameters and
Cartesian and helical parameters from the local view between
neighboring bases and basepairs. I had articles in last years JMB and
JBSD.
        Let me know if a single run program with comparable parameters
is what you can use.

My impression is that Curves/dials/windows is for analyzing
trajectories generated w/ dynamics programs, rather than
being a dynamics program per se. See our Web page for a reference
to SCARECROW, another analysis package.

Dr Olson:

I read your posting on CCL.  Our lab along with Dr. David Doherty has
developed a program called MOLSIM.  It may help resolve your problem.
Following is an excerpt from its manual,

"The mda module

The mda option of Molsim is an interactive MD analysis facility, which
operates on either the trajectory files output by mdsim or the energy files
output by mdsim (choose "none" upon starting up mda). Some of the types of
analysis provided by mda include: saving of a particular frame of the
trajectory file to a molecule file; bond length, bond angle, torsion angle,
or atom-atom distance monitoring and averaging over the course of the
trajectory; calculation of thermodynamic properties (assuming a canonical
ensemble and an equilibrium trajectory) from the energy files output by
mdsim (choose "none" when mda asks for a trajectory file definition);
calculation of certain polymer properties from the trajectory; and more.
mda can act upon several consecutive trajectories, treating them as one
continous trajectory. This is accomplished by creating a text file which
contains the name of each of the trajectory files on a separate line, then
choosing "multiple" when mda starts up."

MOLSIM software is a commercial program.  If you wish furthur information,
please let me know.  You can also directly contact Dr.
Doherty(doherty@msc.edu) or Dr. Hopfinger(u32583@uicvm.uic.edu).

Good Luck,

-We are looking at some of these packages now.  We have about 13,000 DNA
molecular dynamics structures in CHARMm DCD files, so we need to reduce
the data to digestible chunks for understanding and publication.  So far,
the easiest way to this still appears to be Curves, Dials and Windows,
but some of the other programs have some very intriguing features that 
we can probably use for future analyses of biomolecular structures.

Thanks very much to the respondents!

Hi Netters,

Could you tell me whether there is any other program, beside GAUSSIAN9*, 
which includes point charges around a quantum mechanic cluster?

I appreciate very much for your help.
