Hi.

two questions concerning DFT functionals:

1) what are the *exact* definitions of local vs. non-local?
2) is the LYP correlation functional, which incorporates gradient
corrections, local or non-local?

I was given a book by Huzinaga (Gaussian Basis Sets) and was looking
through, comparing a couple of them to Pople's basis sets.  There appears
to be slight differences (maybe 3rd or 4th significant figure) but they are
more-or-less the same.

Can anyone say why they are different, and which is 'better' (yes, I know
Pople is a Nobel Laureate, and Huzinaga isn't, but ...)

Hi,

Maybe I should reformulate my original question:

is the following correct:

non-local means that the xc potential in point r depends not only on the
density in r (and also gradients of rho in r, ...) but also on the density
in other points r'.

Today is the deadline for submitting a paper to the Computers in Chemistry
division of the ACS for the 1999 spring meeting in Anaheim.  I will still
consider submission of posters or papers to the general section for a

symposia chairs.

If interested, please download the abstract template from the ACS web site

find you cannot save it as a .doc, in which case .dot is fine.  Please do
not use a Mac-based attachment protocol such as binhex as I cannot decode
that, but attaching via Netscape should work.

If you cannot send electronically fax a copy immediately and follow up

Dear sir,

I am helping to debug a program which can convert amber trj file to Charmm
DCD format and further used by Xplor. I have no experience with Charmm
and Xplor though we have both packages installed. Basically I have two
questions:

(1) Would some one please tell me where I  can   find the DCD header
format description without digging into the code?(e.g what's the meaning
of the first 20 header varibles and their domain?)

(2) Can Xplor read in charmm DCD without any modifications?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Dear All,

I am trying to write  arc file in Biosym format from series of .car
files. According to MSI documentation the arc file is just a set of the
 .car "frames" but it does not work if you just append this series in one
file. It is also mentioned that the arc file is written as one record, but
formatting the series as one record also does not help.

Does somebody know exact format of arc files?

You might want to look at VMD <http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/>.
It contains C code to read/write binary DCD files on SGIs and
HPs (the format is machine dependent).  The Amber group distributes
a free library for reading/writing parm files and the VMD
distribution includes the library in its distribution.

The end result is you should be able to use VMD to read the
Amber file then write the results to a DCD file.   Or you can
strip the code out of VMD and roll your own solution.  A couple
of other package (most notably MMTK) have taken that route.

> (2) Can Xplor read in charmm DCD without any modifications?
