Try the ZINDO/S parameters for chlorine suggested by Kristine B. 
Andersen, Acta Chem. Scand. 53, 222-229 (1999):

zeta = 2.03333
Is = 26.85 eV
Ip = 13.86 eV
beta = -19.00 eV
F0 = 10.8662 eV
F2 = 6.44670 eV
G1 = 8.80224 eV

See the original publication by Kristine for a demonstration of the 
performance of these parameters in calculations on a few organic 
compounds (naphthazarin and related species).

Hi,

I am writing an LCAO-DFT code using numerical orbitals. For some basis
sets the overlap matrix acquires very small eigenvalues, and this leads to
ghost states with very low energy.

I have heard of two ways to fix this:

1) Diagonalise the overlap matrix, shift the very small eigenvalues up,
   and then reconstruct the overlap matrix;

2) Diagonalise the overlap matrix, remove the eigenvectors with very small
   eigenvalues, and transform the overlap and Fock matrices accordingly.

Are there any recommendations as to which is better? (The first approach
would be a lot more convenient, but only if it works!)

Cheers,

Andrew

To: chemistry@ccl.net

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Dear Sir,


I'm traing to use the TINKER MM3 program for th
calculations of IR frequencies. Unfortunately this
program does not have all torsional parameeters
needed. The parameters found in TINKER's mm3.prm are a
direct translation of the values distributed by
Allinger's group with "real" MM3. The "real" MM3
program does have an option to "guess" at missing
parameters by using
an interpolation from similar known parameters. TINKER
does not have this as an option.
Could you help me and tell a source for different
torsional parameters for systems containing sp carbon
atom (or atom type 4)or such inerpolating option which
is working under TINKER.
I'm not subscibed to this list, I'm just asking
consultation.

Hi, in some recent publications (e.g., Glendening etal, J.Phys.Chem. 100,

which is not included in Dunning's original paper (J.Chem.Phys. 90, 1007

basis set for Li and thanks in advance.

BTW, I have searched the Gaussian Basis Set forums and found nothing.

Have a good day,

Hi Andrew,

It might not be as good either way: both try to alter the overlap matrix (and
all the other things down the road).  I suggest you to precondition the basis
functions (only for atom-centered ones, of course) by schmidt orthogonalizing
those attached to the same nuclei.  This will eliminate much of the linear
dependencies that could be seen in methods utilizing analytical integration
with GTO basis functions, and can be done effortlessly on an atomic grid.

Good luck,
Liang

Dear CCLers,

Is there any FREEWARE 3-D plotting package (which runs on MS-Windows or
DOS or Linux platforms) which reads x,y,z data in columns and gives a
surface plot ?

Can it compose more than one plot onto the same page and can it be
converted to POSTSCRIPT FORMAT ?

Thanks in advance.

I have installed g94w on a
pentium III pc with 128mb  ram.
the operating system is win98.
When the program changes link
it gives me an error message sayng that
win386 caused an error, and it prompts me to close or
ignore. If I press ignore the program continues
normally until the next link where it gives me the same error.
(i.e the error appears every time the program changes link)

Does anybody know how to resolve this problem?

P.S
The same problem apeared even with
win95 operating system

Thanks in advance
