Dear Netters

I want to use ZINDO in Gaussian98 to calculate UV-Vis Spactra of
Cu(II) Complexes. The calculations stop with the error : 

Error: NBasis= 81 but NBZDO=86 .

What is the error, is ZINDO not parameterised for Cu?

Hello!
I am working now at the problem of computer modelling of

Electrothermal Atomizers. I have downloaded ASTRA4, but I am not
satisfied by it, I've downloaded ChemSage (demo-version), but it is not

In many versions of ZINDO, e.g., ZINDO/S in HyperChem, Chlorine is 
not parameterized.  You may try the ZINDO/S parameters for chlorine 
suggested by

Kristine B. Andersen, Acta Chem. Scand. 53, 222-229 (1999),
<kristine.andersen@leo-pharma.com>:

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 (chlorine derivatives og naphthazarin and related species).

Dear Dr. Kincaid, 

I recommand you to use gOpenmol program. 
This program diplay ESP surface using plt format recognized
by gOpenMol that tranferred from G98w cube file. 
In detail, See as follows.

	Dear netters,

		I'm running some jobs using the G98 implementation of Zindo/S. Since this
program is not intended to optimize geometries I'm using geometries
obtained at other levels of theory, dft for example. 
		However, I was unable to get the MO coeffs printed in the output after
the Zindo job. I tried pop(full) and iop(6/7=3) but none worked.     
		Is there any way to print the MO coeffs in the output for a Zindo/S job
in G98? 
		Thanks in advance.
		Regards,

						Reinaldo

Hi CCLers,

I'm thinking about a project to calculate small molecules adsorbed to 
defective surfaces of some crystal. From the literature I know that 
correlation is important and that my system is not closed shell, i.e. 
alpha and beta densities are different. So I think that the best method 
is DFT, using LSDA and (probably) some GGA (i.e. gradient corrected) 
functional. The problem is that I'm not familiar with the world of 
periodic calculations, I just know of the existance of two programs in 
that area: CRYSTAL and CASTEP. Since my surface is defective, I need to 
cover a surface area of at least 2x2 unit cells and a depth of 3 cells 
(approx. 18 symmetry unique atoms). So I think I also need analytical 
gradients of atomic positions vs. energy if I am to finish geometry 
optimization in a reasonable time. I already know that CRYSTAL does a 
numerical (gradients based on finite energy differences) optimization, 
but what about CASTEP? The information I found on the web was not 
instructive in this respect.

So the main questions are:
* What programs can optimize systems with with 20 or 45 symmetry 
  independent  atoms?
* What programs can work with LSDA+GGA DFT methods?
* What do these programs cost?
* Do they work nicely or are there some points to keep an eye on?

I'll summarize in about a week to the list.

Thanks in advance,
                   Stefan Fau
