Cohen, and Nicholas C. Handy Department of Chemistry, Lensfield Road, Cambridge CB2 1EW, United Kingdom ͑Received 7 June 2000; accepted 8 September 2000͒ To gain an understanding of the variational behavior of kinetic energy functionals, we perform a numerical study of the Thomas–Fermi–Dirac–von Weizsa¨cker theory in finite systems. A general purpose Gaussian-based code is constructed to perform energy and geometry optimizations on polyatomic systems to high accuracy. We carry out benchmark studies on atomic and diatomic systems. Our results indicate that the Thomas–Fermi–Dirac–von Weizsa¨cker theory can give an approximate description of matter, with atomic energies, binding energies, and bond lengths of the correct order of magnitude, though not to the accuracy required of a qualitative chemical theory. We discuss the implications for the development of new kinetic functionals. © 2001 American Institute of Physics. ͓DOI: 10.1063/1.1321308͔ I. INTRODUCTION

  • Use of Mo”Ller-Plesset Perturbation Theory in Molecular Calculations: Spectroscopic Constants of First Row Diatomic Molecules
    JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS VOLUME 108, NUMBER 12 22 MARCH 1998 Use of Mo”ller-Plesset perturbation theory in molecular calculations: Spectroscopic constants of first row diatomic molecules Thom H. Dunning, Jr. Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, Washington 99352 Kirk A. Peterson Department of Chemistry, Washington State University and the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, Washington 99352 ~Received 9 December 1997; accepted 17 December 1997! The convergence of Mo”ller–Plesset perturbation expansions ~MP2–MP4/MP5! for the spectroscopic constants of a selected set of diatomic molecules ~BH, CH, HF, N2, CO, and F2! has been investigated. It was found that the second-order perturbation contributions to the spectroscopic constants are strongly dependent on basis set, more so for HF and CO than for BH. The MP5 contributions for HF were essentially zero for the cc-pVDZ basis set, but increased significantly with basis set illustrating the difficulty of using small basis sets as benchmarks for correlated calculations. The convergence behavior of the exact Mo”ller–Plesset perturbation expansions were investigated using estimates of the complete basis set limits obtained using large correlation consistent basis sets. For BH and CH, the perturbation expansions of the spectroscopic constants converge monotonically toward the experimental values, while for HF, N2, CO, and F2, the expansions oscillate about the experimental values. The perturbation expansions are, in general, only slowly converging and, for HF, N2, CO, and F2, appear to be far from convergence at MP4. In fact, for HF, N2, and CO, the errors in the calculated spectroscopic constants for the MP4 method are larger than those for the MP2 method ~the only exception is De!.

    Virt&l-Comm.3.2012.1 A MODERN APPROACH TO AB INITIO COMPUTING IN CHEMISTRY, MOLECULAR AND MATERIALS SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGIES ANTONIO LAGANA’, DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY, UNIVERSITY OF PERUGIA, PERUGIA (IT)* ABSTRACT In this document we examine the present situation of Ab initio computing in Chemistry and Molecular and Materials Science and Technologies applications. To this end we give a short survey of the most popular quantum chemistry and quantum (as well as classical and semiclassical) molecular dynamics programs and packages. We then examine the need to move to higher complexity multiscale computational applications and the related need to adopt for them on the platform side cloud and grid computing. On this ground we examine also the need for reorganizing. The design of a possible roadmap to establishing a Chemistry Virtual Research Community is then sketched and some examples of Chemistry and Molecular and Materials Science and Technologies prototype applications exploiting the synergy between competences and distributed platforms are illustrated for these applications the middleware and work habits into cooperative schemes and virtual research communities (part of the first draft of this paper has been incorporated in the white paper issued by the Computational Chemistry Division of EUCHEMS in August 2012) INTRODUCTION The computational chemistry (CC) community is made of individuals (academics, affiliated to research institutions and operators of chemistry related companies) carrying out computational research in Chemistry, Molecular and Materials Science and Technology (CMMST). It is to a large extent registered into the CC division (DCC) of the European Chemistry and Molecular Science (EUCHEMS) Society and is connected to other chemistry related organizations operating in Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, Chemometrics, Omics-sciences, Medicinal chemistry, Forensic chemistry, Food chemistry, etc.

Some explanatory references have been added to make acronyms better understandable but still more are needed. Critical comments, additional references, etc. are requested. INTRODUC'IION The IUPAC Working Party on Theoretical Chemistry was persuaded, by discussion with colleagues, that the compilation of a list of acronyms used in theoretical chemistry would be a useful contribution. Initial lists of acronyms drawn up by several members of the working party have been augmented by the provision of a substantial list by Chemical Abstract Service (see footnote below). The working party is particularly grateful to CAS for this generous help. It soon became apparent that many of the acron ms needed more than mere spelling out to make them understandable and so we have added expr anatory references to many of them.
