Dear Netters,

we hope that some of you know the answer
to our question. We would greately appreciate help.

There is a great need for all-electron basis set(s)
for Se and Te (ideal is further continuation to Po).

While 6-311G** for Se is found in Gaussian94,
does someone know anything about all-electron (non-CEP)
basis sets for Te ?

More generally, are there around all-electron basis sets
(may be even unpublished - we would gratefully cite
 any source which provides us with them) for
the 3rd and 4th rows, good quality ones?!

The nature of the problem we are dealing with
allows us not care (for the moment)
about relativistic effects.

Answers will, naturally, be summarized and posted.

Sincerely,
Ayaz Bakasov.

 Hi Ayaz,
    I am currently optimising triple zeta + bases for the main group
 elements of row 4 of the Periodic Table, together with all of row 5
 to be published when completed.

 So below are my Se and Te, all-electron bases.

    You could also look in Huzinaga's 'Green book' and the bases of
 Harry Partridge.

    Trusting these help and good luck,
         John

Dear netters,
I am using the SYBYL software on a Silicon Graphics Indigo.
How could I get an exact printed copy of the screen view?
Postscript output included in Sybyl transforms the original view which
is seen on the screen.
Thank you.

I have written a macro 'image.spl' which captures images from Sybyl
running on an Silicon Graphics workstation, writes them out to image
files.

   http://www.tripos.com/services/spl_archive/image.spl


image.spl will write out the following file formats:

    SGI RGB, GIF, PICT, TIFF, JPEG, ALIAS, TARGA, & Postscript

If Postscript output is selected, a print command may be
supplied by the user to direct output to the printer of choice.

  e.g. lpr -Pphaser

PLEASE NOTE: This macro will run ONLY on Silicon Graphics workstations
which have the necessary utiltities.

I hope you find this useful.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

Best regards,
David

I have an IMMEDIATE OPENING for a postdoctoral research associate in
computational chemistry.  Experience in molecular mechanics and
dynamics, and quantum mechanics (semiempirical methods) are required.
Experience with CHARMM is also required.  Experience with commercial
software packages such as Quanta, Cerius-2, Spartan, Insight/Discover,
and/or Sybyl will be useful.

The position is part of an SBIR Phase II project which will involve both
application of existing computational methods and participation in the
development of new methods - in collaboration with a commercial software
developer.

The initial appointment will be for one year.  One additional year is
possible.  Please send resume, list of publications, and names/addresses

Subject: ADF


Dear all,

This is primarily a call upon all users of ADF who have NOT obtained a license directly from SCM or the Theoretical Chemistry Department of the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam. We wish to update our knowledge of the ADF user-base so as to be better able to enquire about research fields, technical issues, development and improvement preferences, etc. Therefore, we kindly ask you two minutes of your time to answer the questions below and send your answers to:

adf@chem.vu.nl


Please feel free to add any comments or suggestions you may have, also when not directly related to the questions.

1. would you like to be included in mailing lists to receive information about new releases or developments of ADF?

2. what is your affiliation type (industry, government research, academic, ...)?

3. what kind of platforms are you using ADF on? (eg: workstation, computers at SuperComputerCentre, parallel workstation clusters, mainframes, ...)?

4. Could you indicate the general application area / research field you are using ADF for?

5. when you have problems with understanding results or using the code, where do you go for help? (figure out yourself, someone else at your institute, the license provider (please indicate which), ....) Are you usually satisfied with how that works out?

6. how do you perceive the available documentation in general (not detailed enough, way too extended, ...)? Any details in your answer are appreciated.

7. do you use ADF primarily on its own or rather in conjunction with other chemistry codes (modelling, ab initio, semi-empirical, ...)? If the latter, could you indicate what for your research ADF's position is within the pack of programs you're using?

8. what are in your experience ADF's weakest points? What type of improvements / developments would be welcomed most in the context of your research?


thanks for your attention,

Hi, CCLer's

I am running some MD simulations (a biorganic solute in H2O) using
amber and need some guidance.

What is too much of an energy fluctuation when running an NVE
ensemble? The temperature is not fixed but targeted to 300K. How
much leeway is reasonable in the fluctuations of the temperature
and deviations between the mean temperature and the target temperature?

In running simple Leonnard-Jones potentials, people take 1 in 10^4 as
a reasonable fluctuation in the energy. The amber potential is more
complex. Is 1 in 10^2 reasonable?

Obviously the answer may depend on what I intend to do with the
simulation. I am interested in the frequency spectrum of the
atomic motions of the solute and some radial distribution functions. The
goal is to generate friction coefficients and potentials of mean force
for the atoms in the solute.

Thanks for your kind reply. I will summarize to the net if 
there is enough interest.

Subject: Q:"linear" map to RGB for RasMol
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit


Dear CCLers,

What is a (simple?) function to map a linear distribution of points to a
ROYGBIV spectrum of colors expressed as RGB values?

Stated more concretely:  I have a distribution of data values which I
would like to display graphically as continuous gradations in color
where the color map ranges from red to blue/violet.  These colors must
be expressed as a set of RGB values ( 0 <= R,G,B <= 255 ).

In other words, given a data value V, what are the values of R(V), G(V),
and B(V) such that for V=-max you get "red" while for V=+max you get
"blue/violet" and in between you get something resembling a rainbow? And
a rainbow which appears to be a nice linear mapping to the human eye so
that, if possible, one has a sense that "That color is 1/3 of the way
>from red to blue so V must be about -17."

I ask because I am attempting to modify my personal X/Unix copy of
RasMol (obtained from http://www.umass.edu/microbio/rasmol) so that
RasMol will use a continuous color distribution, instead of a coarse set
of 8 colors, when it maps the molecular electrostatic potential to
colors on a dotted van der Waals surface.  Being color-theory impaired,
I do not know of a good mapping as one finds in the program Grasp, among
others.  I understand that there are as many ways to map potential to
color as there are known mathematical functions but something Grasp-like
or in some sense perceived as "proportionally spaced" to the human eye
would be great.

I'll summarize and post the finished subroutine if there is interest, if
the subroutine works, and if no one can point out licensing violations
in doing so. Thanks in advance,
