Hi,

I haven't received any messages for some time from the CC List so this
message deals with an old subject but I still want to contribute.

I wrote a long time ago a filter program to convert the Gaussian Cube
files into a form readable by SCARECROW or gOpenMol. Please have a look at

http://laaksonen.csc.fi/gopenmol/gopenmol.htmls

Regards,

-leif laaksonen

Ps:
    It is interesting to see the increasing number of entries dealing with
    PC/Windows NT. I finally managed to port the full functionality of
    gOpenMol using the OpenGL and Tcl/Tk libraries and toolkits to the
    WINTEL NT platform and I'm still impressed by the speed of my 
    computer and the graphics in particular.

Dear friends,

I am looking for someone who has already succeded in porting XMol on

Hi everyone,
I am facing a problem that is difficult because it is too easy ;-)
We are considering to  enter a project for which we require as
accurate as possible information about the potential curves of a
large variety of excited states of the He2(++) dimer. This is a 2 
electron system and one is tempted to employ methods such as 
Hylleras CI or some variant thereof (i.e. wave functions 
that explicitly contain the e-e distance).
Can anyone give us a hint who might have such a piece of software and
would be willing to share it with us? Also, more general comments on how
to deal with two electron problems are welcome. Doing a full CI with a
general purpose program is probably not the smartest thing to do.
I know that there are of course a lot of calc's on the He2(++) ground 
state (after all, it is a metastable, experimentally well established 
molecule!) but I am not aware of too many studies considering excited states. 
But this could well be due to the fact that I am not following the
physics literature as closely as I should. Should you know of 
any recent and good investigation on that subject that might have  
escaped my attention, pls. let me know as well.
Many thanks in advance.

Wolfram

I recently posed the following question to the list:

>like to take some of the calculations to the G2 level.  Is there
>an easy way to do this, utilizing the results of the G2MP2

George Parks
==============
To go from G2(MP2) to G2 still you need to complete the rest of the jobs you
need to calculate G2 energies. As far as I can tell you must have done
QCISD(T)/6-311G(d,p), MP2/6-311+G(3df,2p). Still you need MP4/6-311+G(d,p)
job, and MP4/6-311G(2df,p). I hope you included in you QCISD(T) the option
E4T. IF so, you can read the MP4/6-311(d,p) from the same job. If you did
not use the option E4T in you QCISD(T), still you need to run it. Keep in
mind the time
consuming part is the MP4/6-311(2df,p) job.

I hope that should be of a good help for you. If there is an alternative
solution, I will be glad to learn it.
                                    Anwar G. Baboul
==============
Assuming you have not got a chk file from the G2MP2, you should:-

1. Extract the geometry from the MP2(FULL)/6-31G(d) run.
2. Run single point at 6-311+G(d,p)
3. Run single point at 6-311G(2df,p)

If you have the chk file you should be able to miss out step
1 and get the geometry from the chk file using "geom=checkpoint guess=read"
on the control line.

You now have everything needed to get the G2 energy.

Cheers, Brian.

Subject: Vapor-liquid equilibria calculations



Dear netters

I develop a software which is able to calculate physico-chemical properties
of pure compounds and/or mixtures and vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE).

I am looking for subroutines or algorithms for VLE calculations for "all the
cases".
i.e. If you know the Temperature ( T) and the liquid phase composition (X)
you need the Pressure   (P) and the vapor phase composition (Y).
	T,X 	--> P,Y
	T,Y	--> P,X
	P,X	--> T,Y
	P,Y	--> T,X

and "flash calculations"  the alimentation composition Z, T, P 	--> X,Y

I realy appreciate all contributions.
I will summarize the answers.

Hi again,

    I received several helpful replies to my previous posting:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Does anyone know of a simple Windows 3.1/NT/95 product that can be used
to build molecules?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I'm sorry I didn't make my question more explict.  What I want is a .DLL
(or .VBX(preferably) or .OCX) that I can incorporate within other software.
i.e. I don't want a stand-alone product.  I don't think any of the
replies refer to products that can be used this way (but the individual
posters should please contact me if I'm wrong)  Preferably, the price would
also be right :- )

Dear ccl:

I submitted the following question yesterday:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone know of vibrational study of anions by the DFT method other than
that reported in: S. R. Langhoff, J. Phys. Chem., 100 (1996) 15073.

Please send all replies to me and I will summarize to the list.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I thank everyone who responded to my query. The following are the answers.

1)  From: Jan Hrusak

==========================================================
I do probably not understand your question properly 
but anyhow, we did recently  some comparative DFT 
calculations on the anions. Mainly we are working on
cations where the DFT frequencies are generally better
than MP(n) and very close to the CCSD(T) one.

You may have a look to

J. Phys. Chem 100 (1996) 100

2) From: Rollin King

Change your language to C:

setenv LANG C

XMol should run fine then.  Incidently, this also appears to be the
problem in getting Netscape 3.0 to run under AIX4.1

Dear all,

Sorry if this message is out of topic for this 
newsgroup/mailing list.

I need some advice concerning making good quality of 
slides for presentation.

My situation is the following:

1. Computer Available: IBM RS/6000(43P) Powerstation
                       Apple Mac. IIvx

2. Software Available: Various graphics softwares, such as
                       Photoshop3.0, Chem3D Pro, Excell 3.0,
                       Mac Draw Pro, Igor Pro...

3. Printing Device: Personal Laserwriter 320

My question is the following:

What additional device should I purchase for making a high 
quality color slides for presentation?

All I can do now is drawing the objects(graphics, charts..)
on the screen of my computer, but I need to put them
on slide films for presentation.  

I have thought this problem for relatively long time
and probably the easiest ways that I can consider now are

(i)   buying a color laser printer and print my figures on
      a paper, and then take a photograph with a camera 
      installed with slide film; but I do not like this way 
      because I do not need to have the color image on the paper
      but only on the slide film. I mean the high price for the 
      color laser printer to print on a paper does not have
      to be paid for me, I think.

(ii)  Taking a photograph directly from the screen by using 
      a camera; this would be the cheapest way to produce 
      the color slide since I don't need any additional 
      device except a camera. However, the quality of the 
      slide is not good enough in this case, since, for example,
      the PICT image on a Mac. screen has much less resolution 
      than the printed postscript file.

(iii) Buying a special device only for preparing slide; I've 
      considered this possibility since I heared that there is
      a special device for Mac. which prints the image of
      the graphics files directly onto the slide film, and
      this kind of device has very high resolution; but
      I do not know anything else about this equippment(name,
      price, company, etc.)


Is there any other possibility to make a high resolution color
slide film for presentation?  How do you make your color slide
if you need to give some presentation?  

Any suggestion/information/advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot in advance.

  MDL's ISIS/Draw 2.0 is available *FREE* for academic or personal use
at home.  The ISIS/Draw 2.0 user interface was completely redesigned
with input from many users, and I think that you will find it
very intuitive and easy to use.
  You can download ISIS/Draw 2.0 for Windows or Mac at:

  http://www.mdli.com/prod/download.html

(there are links to download sites in Australia and England here as well)

  You can also find extensive online help files available for download
here as well.

  For 3D model generation you can use ISIS/Draw to create MDL 2D Molfiles
which you can send to CORINA for automatic generation of 3D Molfile
models.
  You can find our more about CORINA at:

   http://schiele.organik.uni-erlangen.de/services/3d.html

  The CORINA system is very nice and easy to use.  You can simply email
a 2D Molfile to CORINA, and get a 3D Molfile emailed back to you.
(You can also send 'SDFiles' to convert many structures at once.  SDFiles
are basically just a bunch of Molfiles appended together in one file.)

-

  I encourage you to also check out our Chemscape Chime Netscape Plug-in 
as well.  Chime has a FREE use license for academic, personal AND
commercial use (for presentation purposes).  The URL to the Chime
main page is:

  http://www.mdli.com/chemscape/chime

  Chime allows you to view a variety of molecule format files,
in 2D or 3D, from within a web browser such as Netscape Navigator.
These structures are 'live' molecular data, and can be manipulated in
place, or saved to disk.

  If you have ISIS/Draw and Chime you can try out our Chemscape
server example interface to NCI 3D database at:

  http://www.mdli.com/chemscape/clientserver/proto.html

This example allows you to you to do text AND structure/substructure
based queries over the NCI database of ~125,000 compounds.  You
can retrieve 2D or 3D structures from your queries.  Again, 
Chime allows you to view these structures 'live' within your webpage, 
and they can be saved to disk as Molfiles.

  I hope you find these tools useful.

You may want to consider renaming the executable to xmol.exe
and then run it by using a script file similar to this one:
(you can call it xmol). As stated before same applies to netscape 3.0

#!/bin/sh
LANG=C
LC_ALL=C
exec /usr/local/bin/xmol.exe "$@"

Subject: Parallelized SHAKE?






Dear netters:

I am trying to find a *published* parallelization of the SHAKE
algorithm.  All I've been able to find is the analytic algorithm
SETTLE of Miyamoto and Kollman, but as far as I can tell, it is only
good for water molecules.  I have also found on the Web various
mentions of parallelized SHAKE routines that are part of recent
versions of CHARMM, AMBER, or GROMOS, but (a) I don't have access to
the source codes, and (b) I find somewhat daunting the idea of poring
through what is surely voluminous code to extract the desired
fragment.  (But maybe it'll come to this... :-/ )

I appreciate any pointers to the literature.

Gabriel,
	you may found interesting to take a look to the DLPOLY parralel MD 
package at the URL http://gserv1.dl.ac.uk/TCSC/Software/DL_POLY/main.html
The source is freely available (Licence agreement needed)
	The shake algorithm should work with molecules different from water.

A caveat on parallelized SHAKE in CHARMM-- a SHAKE constraint may not
be imposed across a parallel partition.  For situations when only bonds to
H atoms are constrained, this isn't a problem, since the GROUP structure
defined in the RTF is respected when the parallel partitioning is done.
However, attempting to constrain all bond lengths will lead to problems
for heavy atom to heavy atom bonds that reside in different parallel
partitions (and that will almost always be the case for a macromolecule).
