Subject: CCL:radical cations (semiemp.)


Dear CCLers,

I am interested in the semiempirical calculation of  some reaction paths (TS
included) involving radical cations (8-25 heavy at.) in low-to-high
dielectric medium as well as in gas phase.

I would very much appreciate any help on how to choose the best way to do=
 that;
please refer to the importance/possibility of using RHF or UHF combined with
continuum solvation models (like COSMO).

I will summarize the answers for the CCL.

Thank you in advance=20
and best regards,

Jose Prata

  Hi again,

  Several weeks ago I wrote ccl, asking about papers that combined the multiple
time scale integrators with QM/MM forcefield approaches.  My original
query was:


______________________________________________________________________________

  Hello,

  A few days ago I posted to the list concerning the use of the combined
QM/MM forcefield (I will summarize in a few days).  But for now I have
another, related, question.

  I could have sworn that I came across an article in which the Car-Parinello
QM/MM method was being combined with multiple time scale integrators (RESPA,
I assume).  Does anyone know the reference for this article?  It should
be relatively recent (1996, I think.)  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Howard

  And now your responses:

Steven Stuart:


Dr. Alper,

This may not be the article you meant, but here is an application
of RESPA to Car-Parrinello.  (The second one in particular)

@article{ tp94,
  author = "M. E. Tuckerman and M. Parrinello",
  title = "Integrating the {C}ar-{P}arrinello equations.  {I}. 
                  {B}asic integration techniques",
  journal = JCP,
  volume = "101",
  pages = "1302-1315",
  year = 1994}

@article{ tp94b,
  author = "M. E. Tuckerman and M. Parrinello",
  title = "Integrating the {C}ar-{P}arrinello equations.  {II}. 
                  {M}ultiple time scale techniques",
  journal = JCP,
  volume = "101",
  pages = "1316--1329",
  year = 1994}


-Steve Stuart

John Gunn:


The only thing I can think of which fits the description is
J. Chem Phys 101, 1316 (1994).  For something more recent, you
could have a look at J. Phys. Chem. 100, 12878 (1996).

-John.

It could be this one

I haven't red this papers but I do know that Mark Tuckerman is or was
working on exactly the problem you were mentioning.
