We are using gaussian G-16 to calculate molecular properties. When I specigy in the rout line def2qzvpp ( #P B3LYP/def2qzvpp opt output=pickett) with RU (Ruthenium atom in the atom list) -- Does the Gaussian do an ALL ELECTRON calculation -OR- use a core potential (ECP) for the Ru atom?
I want to simulate two different ceramic structures. Each of the structures has a different number of atoms. I divided my simulation box into two parts. Now, in the create_atom section, I don't know how to define three atoms for one box.
Can anyone give clear explanation add parameters for it to the parameter library first for auto dock. Because Ni atom is not in the library it seems? Step by step instruction.
Is gravity responsible for holding atoms and molecules together and how the force of gravity is responsible for the moon's motion around the Earth?
Should I click something in ADTools when the article says "each atom was assigned an “autodock type” or ADT assigns it automatically?
I need to calculate the conductivity of the my material. From the previous reported articles i got these formulas
1. σ ∝ exp(-Eg/2*Kb*T)
Kb - Boltzmann constant
T - Temperature (in kelvin)
Eg - Energy gap (in eV)
2. σ = A*T^3/2 exp(-Eg/2*Kb*T)
Kb - Boltzmann constant
T - Temperature (in kelvin)
Eg - Energy gap (in eV)
A - constant ( in some article it is mentioned as Richardson Constant = 6 * 10^5 A/m^2)
3. σ = A*T^3/2 exp(-Eg/Kb*T)
Kb - Boltzmann constant
T - Temperature (in kelvin)
Eg - Energy gap (in eV)
A - constant
among the above formulas which one is correct to calculate conductivity?

I am a beginner in molecular dynamics, it would be of great help if someone could help me in rectifying the problem.I am attaching the input files along with the dump file for reference.
Hi,
I have two rotamers from crystal structure data. I like to use the QST2 transition state search in Gaussian to investigate their interconversion barrier. Since they come from crystal structure data, the atom numbering/ordering of the two optimized rotamers is different. With around 100 atoms, I would really prefer not to try and renumber them by hand. Is there any automatic structure match and renumber routine out there, which would produce the two geometries with matching numbering?
Alternatively, if I have to go via the "traditional" TS search: is there any program which would allow to match/align two structures and to calculate an "averaged" structure from this? But I assume those would also require matching numbering...
According to my research: the whole universe works like a big star.
At first, the environment of the big star expands. Then the terminal bodies collapse and the star's environment shrinks. And these events are repeated several times. Expansion, contraction, re-expansion, contraction.
Each time the kernel size gets smaller. Finally, three things happen.
1- The big collision with the star and destruction. 2- Ejecting all objects around the star and exploding the core of the star. 3- The star shrinks to the size of an atom.
I prepared an article about the birth to death of a star with all the details and mathematical formulas.
Everything is based on classical physics.
Hi
There are various types of antiferromagnetic states,of which A-,C- and G- type are of my interest.These types depend upon the configuration of spins.
When the (magnetic) atoms are at corners, it is easy to assign spin orientation to each to get the three states.However,when they are face-centered and edge-centered, i face issues in assigning the orientations.Kindly, help me out.,which to keep up and which down.
Regards
Do the atomic orbitals of the same atom have the same energy under different chemical conditions? In other words, can atomic orbital energy be changed by external changes? For example, does Fe(OH)3 have the same atomic orbital energy as Fe in Fe2O3?
I have a protein, for which I want to computationally study the effect of its phosphorylation. I was able to add a phosphoryl group to my desired THR residue and the structure looks fine. However, when I try to generate topology using gmx_pdb2gmx, it does not work. I figured it has to do with the extra phosphoryl that i added, which is naturally absent in the aminoacids.rtp file. Hence, I manually created another entry namely "pTHR", where I added the charges for the THR along with the phosphoryl. I tried to generate the topology once again, but its still not accepting it. Kindly tell me if anyone has done it before on gromacs. Thanks, ahead of time.

Fatal error:
Atom HD1 in residue HIS 822 was not found in rtp entry HSE with 17 atoms while sorting atoms.
For a hydrogen, this can be a different protonation state, or it
might have had a different number in the PDB file and was rebuilt
(it might for instance have been H3, and we only expected H1 & H2).
Note that hydrogens might have been added to the entry for the N-terminus.
Remove this hydrogen or choose a different protonation state to solve it.
Option -ignh will ignore all hydrogens in the input.
I also Followed the suggestion to using -ignh in the code but it give me this error:
Fatal error:
Atom OXT in residue VAL 961 was not found in rtp entry VAL with 16 atoms
while sorting atoms.
Would anyone please help me? I can't concentrate on my studies unless I solve them.

Hi, guys. I started doing some dockings a few days ago and there was an constantly error showing up on the autodocktools cmd:
"swig/python detected a memory leak of type 'BHtree *', no destructor found." (PFA a printscreen of the error).
The error kept showing up after every command i gave. For example, after every missing atom added it showed up again. I didn't mind at first, because everything was working just fine, even though I was wondering if my results would be realiable with such an error.
But now, there is another error showing up on the autodock (You can also find a printscreen attached), and i can't dock anything anymore. I have already tried reinstalling autodock and MGLtools.
Has anyone had this same errors? Would you know how can I solve it? Just making clear that I'm not familiar with programming.
Thank you so much!
I am trying to run MD calculations with an RNA aptamer in Amber. The first step (detachement of hydrogens) occurs fine:
pdb4amber -y -i 7kd1.pdb -o apt-nh.pdb
However, this command gives the message:
"The following residues had alternate locations: U_21"
Than, I go with a command @tleap -f leaprc.RNA.OL3@ which works fine.
Than I print:
rec=loadpdb apt-nh.pdb
which results in:
Created a new atom named: P within residue: .R<G5 1>
Created a new atom named: OP1 within residue: .R<G5 1>
Created a new atom named: OP2 within residue: .R<G5 1>
Created a new atom named: OP3 within residue: .R<G5 1>
total atoms in file: 1914
Leap added 961 missing atoms according to residue templates:
961 H / lone pairs
The file contained 4 atoms not in residue templates
I type:
set default PBRadii mbondi2
Finally, I try to generate a topology file "saveamberparm rec apt.prmtop apt.inpcrd", which results in:
Warning: The unperturbed charge of the unit (-88.000000) is not zero.
FATAL: Atom .R<G5 1>.A<P 33> does not have a type.
FATAL: Atom .R<G5 1>.A<OP1 34> does not have a type.
FATAL: Atom .R<G5 1>.A<OP2 35> does not have a type.
FATAL: Atom .R<G5 1>.A<OP3 36> does not have a type.
Error: Failed to generate parameters
Warning: Parameter file was not saved.
However, when I look through the pdb file I cannot see abnormalities or missing atom types. So what is wrong with my pdb file (attached)?
In Cuprous Oxide Cu2O(111) lattice when oxygen atoms from upper three surfaces are removed there two types of sites are generated- vacancy and interstitial site. How can I identify which one is vacancy and which one is interstitial?
Hello,
I am trying to calculate a pore size distribution of a polymer(PIM-1) which data file is in united atom model. I have tried with zeo++ software but the it only allows upto 2.4 A radius for psd calculation. However, in my united atom model the highest radius is 6.4 A.
Could anyone please suggest me how I can calculate the pore size distribution?
Everyone knows simple classical model of dielectric susceptibility called Lorentz oscillator model, in other words, spring mass model. But I can't find it's all parameter values for different atoms: resonance (spontaneous) frequency - ω0 = \sqrt{k/m}, 2) effective mass of electron - m, 3) damping coefficient - γ = 1/τ, τ - relaxation/scattering time. If there are experimenters or specialists from relating fields which have knowledge of handbooks, databases, catalogs or any writings for experementers, of values of ω0, m, γ, plasma frequency ωp, real (refractive index or relative permittivity) and imaginary parts of susceptibilities \chi(1), please provide information on them.
Related question is the following: Has the Lorentz model expanded for diatomic, triatomic, ... multiatomic molecules? Is it useful for theoretical description of susceptibilities for multiatomic molecules? Why yes or why not? Please provide relevant information.
Thank you in advance...
I have tried to calculation Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskites. This compound has a cubic symmetry and 40 atoms in unit cell.
I desired to ask;
1- 'nat'parameter is equal to 10 or 40 in scf file. which one?
The total number of atoms in Cs2AgBiBr6 is 10. But this compounds has 40 atoms in unit cell.

Kindly assist with my challenge. I used stress/atom commands in LAMMPS to calculate Von miss stress and hydrostatic stress of a silicon nanometric cutting. Unfortunately or fortunately I got hydrostatic stress of maximum -3GPa and 1GPa which is low compared to 11GPa - 14GPa for Si and diamond tool with 204241 atoms. Note, the hydrostatic stress is for tool atoms group. I attached the stress part of the script. If there is a need to attach the entire script, I will.
There are atoms that can count a second with a very big precision if they are "asked" to do it. The best known today are cesium and strontium, to my knowledge. But the question is to know if in each of these atoms is there a single perfect transition to do this work or is it possible that there are several in a same atom?
Hi everyone, I wanna check the intermolecular interactions between an ion (ex. Ca 2+) and an organic molecule (ex. chitosan). I did the same project before to check the electrical potential changes by changing the distance between two atoms by Gaussian. Now I wanna do the same project on ions and organic molecules.
For metal ions, an example entry in the parameter file is:
atom_par Tc 3.00 0.048 12.000 -0.00110 0.0 0.0 0 -1 -1 4
atom_par U XXX XXXX XXXX XXXXX 0.0 0.0 0 -1 -1 4
atom_par Re 2.95 0.066 12.000 -0.00110 0.0 0.0 0 -1 -1 4
The first four numbers are the ones to change:
Rii = sum of vdW radii of two like atoms (in Angstrom)
epsii = vdW well depth (in Kcal/mol)
vol = atomic solvation volume (in Angstrom^3) (4/3*pi*(Rii/2)**3)
solpar = atomic solvation parameter
I established a model of Ca decorated graphene 2D material with c lattice constant 20A, and wanted to do hydrogen molecular adsorption, the process is like this
1 Optimize the graphene system structure under Ca decorated.
2 throw in two hydrogen atoms at a distance of 0.7A for molecular dynamics analysis.
But in the analysis I found that the two hydrogen atoms separated, and flow upward, and did not be adsorbed, is this right?.
Because When I set one hydrogen atom, it got adsorbed very quickly.
I have a doubt for coarse grained md simulation. I have used martinize.py script to model the protein. But from here I do not understand on what basis it modelled the protein. There are 2 chain in the protein, So, it split chain A in 5 chains, 1: 3 atoms in 1 residue,2: 278 atoms in 35 residue, 3: 6 atoms in 2 residues, 3:278 atoms in 35 residues, 5: 3 atoms in 1 residues. and for chain B, 1060 atoms in 130 residues. Suppose I want to form residue wise beads with martini. Is it possible?
Currently i am working on a system of i4/mmm ( material composition is AB2C2) class Which corresponds to ibrav =7. I have sourced my CIF file from crystallographic open database, have crossed verified the lattice parameters from published experimental papers. Upon creating the SCF file, xcrysden showes correct structure only when i chose ibrav to be 6 or simple, tetragonal and not body centered tetragonal class. Where as for the same CIF file, Vesta is showing unit cell made up of 2 units of AB2C2 (Total 10 atoms). So what can i do so that xcrysden also identifies the structure to be body centered. And how this discrepancy is possible?
I am trying to perform a geometry optimization (GEO_OPT) of a FCC 111 Pt_{0.5}Au_{0.5} bimetallic surface (10x10x3) generated from ASE, with a lattice parameter of 3.9 A∘A∘ in CP2K. However, after the geometry optimization is completed, the visualization of the coordinates show that the top layer gold atoms are moving away from the surface layer.
I am using CUTOFF 400 and REL_CUTOFF 60 for the calculations. I am unable to figure out how to resolve the problem. I think the forces are very high. I am trying a cell optimization calculation.
Will this be useful? Or should I change something else in the geometry optimization calculations?
Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I want to perform MD on RT ionic liquids using an amber force field. I have generated mol2, frcmod files. Then, I loaded my complex.pdb, which contained dmc and TTE (generated using Packmol).when I tried to run this command (> saveAmberParm ionicbox complex.prmtop complex.inpcrd)then I encountered this error:

What is the relationship between the measured polarization rotation of far-detuned laser and the spin state of the atoms in Faraday effect?
Dear Friends, Grand Success. The 133rd finding in my TOU (Theory of Universality) is : that if we compare the cosmos to a hydrogen atom; and the cosmos with a radius of 133.64 x 14 x 140 Billion Trillion Light years, has a ratio to CCBH radius as calculated ( at a point in space-time where speed of light is 2.148285 m/s ) = 97,240. If we now take the ratio of Van der Waals radius of Hydrogen atom ( = 120 pm ) to its proton radius ( = 1.237 x 10^-15 m ), it works out to be 97,009. Both agree. So, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Indian belief that as the atom so the Cosmos is once again proved to be true and correct. The Cosmos can be compared to a Hydrogen atom. To be published in next Annexure.

I am running docking by using Autodock 4.2 software. However, I am not able to run autodock at the final stage and this type of command error appears in the terminal,
Unknown ligand atom type "atotypin"; add parameters for it to the parameter library first!
Autodock 4.2 runs without errors for similar ligands but this error is seen with ligands having Br and Cl groups.
I edited the autodock parameters tool, But still I faced current problem
I am a beginner in FullPro, and now facing the problem of multi atom doping, how can I determine the doping position? Our current sample is doped with 3 atoms, and the doped element has 4 lattice sites. Now that 2 elements are doped, how to determine which lattice site the two doped elements enter? I did not find a satisfactory answer in the paper, and I am very distressed. I hope everyone can give me some suggestions.

I have a protein and I want to check the orientation of side chain of a particular resdiue A with respect to the residue B in the active site. any help on this regard? currently I am using gmx gangel where group 1 includes the alpha carbon position of B residue and alpha carbon position of A residue and group 2 includes alpha carbon of B and the last atom of the A residue. I am not sure if this is the correct way. any guidance would be appreciated.
Does this change the spintronic state of the Fe atom? Or a change in the magnetic domain?

Find the other products when
Oxygen (O): 6(Co) + 216(Fe) + 6(C) = 228 O atoms on the reactant side,

BALANCE THE EQUATION WITH PRODUCTS
When hydrogen bonding is formed, the electron density on the donor atom (H) of the hydrogen bond decreases, but there is no information on how the electron density of the acceptor atoms (O, F) changes. Is the electron density of the acceptor increasing? Or is the electron cloud pulled to the bonding region causing a decrease?
Let me explain.
I found that the structure for TiFeSi given in the ICSD database using Jsmol software is a little different from what can be obtained using Vesta software using the same cif file downloaded from the ICSD database.
Some atoms in the Vesta plot are missing e.g. Si and Ti (corresponding to the Si1 and Ti3 in the Jsmol plot).
Is it a glitch or bug of Vesta or these two representations are just the same? If they are just the same then how?
If a compound has a lot of oxygen moities in ligand, so the docking score will be increase? If it will increase then what is the reason behind it?
Could someone provide guidance on how to draw the Potential Energy Curves (PECs) for polyatomic molecules? Specifically, I'm interested in the ground states, anionic ground states, and anionic excited states. We have access to GAMESS and MOLPRO facilities. If anyone can assist me, I would greatly appreciate it. Additionally, if there's potential for collaboration on this matter, I'm open to discussing it further.
Hello RG Community:), towards the above topic:
I had entered all of the appropriate files within the ffTK Opt. Charge Tab, however,
am generating the below errors upon Run Optimization (just the first error is included
to facilitate):
Atom name: C1 not found in molecule
Attached is the INPUT PSF and PDB Files and QM Target Data first output file: output14C+H-ACC-C1.out
I believe the molecule is referencing the pdb file which indicates the C1 atom.
Please let me know if you would need to inspect the INPUT par files.
Thanks if you know:),

Dear all,
I am currently working on the simulation study of a complex whose ligand cannot be automatically parameterized. I have been using AMBER to do the parameterization, and now I have obtained the .lib for the ligand. I want to load the parameter to the complex to prepare the input file for simulation. After changing the residue and chain name of the ligand in the complex PDB, I did:
tleap -f oldff/leaprc.ff99SB
>source leaprc.gaff
>loadamberparams deoxyFeb.frcmod
>loadoff deo.lib
>complex = loadpdb deoxyCom.pdb
and it added missing heavy atoms that are not included in the parameter lib. (the whole message is as tleap.txt)
how should I deal with the problem and prepare the input file for MD?
In a well-built apartment building, each apartment has its own walls, and there is an air gap between the walls of adjacent apartments, which provides excellent sound isolation. Could a similar concept provide high-performance thermal insulation?
In general, the thermal resistance of a material interface seems to be viewed as a problem to overcome, rather than an opportunity to create a better insulator (see, eg., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interfacial_thermal_resistance ). So perhaps it is possible to construct a laminar material that uses inter-laminae thermal impedance to create an extremely high resistance to heat conduction.
As the simplest example of this idea, consider a sheet of material that is composed of a large number of alternating layers of materials A and B. Each of these materials consists of atoms of a single element, and at least one of them is not electrically conductive. Material A has relatively heavy atoms and relatively weak (soft) interatomic bonds; material B has relatively light atoms and relatively strong (stiff) interatomic bonds. The natural modes of vibration in material A have much longer periods than those in B. Thermal vibrations in B layers should essentially reflect off the B/A interface. And, provided that the B layers are not too thin, thermal vibrations in A layers that pass across an A/B interface should largely dissipate into B-style vibrations before reaching the next A layer.
Is it possible to design and fabricate sheets of insulating material, based on this concept, that have exceptionally low thermal conductivity?
"ERROR! Too many atom types have been found: maximum is 14; we cannot continue"
Does anyone know how to solve it?
Dear Chemists, theorists and teachers!
Please tell me where information is located on the distribution of electrons among the energy levels of all 118 atoms of the Periodic Table of Elements.
At the beginning of last year, with great difficulty, in an abundance of old, incomplete publications that did not contain these materials, I found what I was looking for (1 H 1, 2 He 2... ...118 Og 2 8 18 32 32 18 8) in a series of complete descriptions of atoms, but did not record the source address. When the work began to come to an end, a two-day search yielded no results.

Hi All! I am trying to calculate the lithiation potential of anode materials. In this regard, the Gibbs free energy is replaced by the total internal energy of the constituting lithiated and pristine structures and pure Li. Li metal has body centered structure E = 2.70 eV is noted (see attachment). So far, I understand that the total energy for Li structure comes around -14.5 Ry or -197.2 eV per atom by DFT calculations. Can anybody help me how to reach this 2.70 eV for pure Li in this regard. I am attaching a paper in this context.
I wanted to convert few 2D compounds to 3D using Avogadro and then use them for docking. Are these ligands efficient for docking? Will I get accurate results. Thank you in advance.

What's the problem?
I am working a system of 40 atoms (Hafnium Selenide,monoclinic structure). When I try run the command "mpirun -np 8 VASP " , process terminates with this error. I have 8 GB RAM and I tried all possible combinations of NCORE and KPAR but nothing worked. What can I do now? This structure does not have any periodic atoms. Can I use ISYM=0 ? Will it help solving the issue ?
Most of the literature that I have come across mainly describes about the importance or impacts of states around the Fermi level in the E-K diagram (energy band diagram). But I have come across some compounds where the orbital contribution from some of its constituent atoms(elements) exists only in the deeper energies relative to other atoms from the same compound. What is the significance or importance of such phenomenon where they contribute relatively to the deeper energy bands?
I understand that when calculating DFT + U, different U and J values can be assigned to each element type using the LDAUU and LDAUJ tags.
But how can I assign different U and J values to the same type of element depending on the Wyckoff position?
LDAUU = 1 4 4 4 4 4 4 1 1 4 4 4 4 4 1 0 0
I tried to write them one by one according to the order of POSCAR's atoms in above way, the results did not change.
I have clusters of 38 FeCoNi atoms that were previously optimized using the Gupta semiempirical potential. I would like to perform a reoptimization, energy calculations, and frequency calculations using DFT with Gaussian 09. What potentials and basis sets do you recommend, as I need to obtain electronic and magnetic properties of these clusters? If there are any other parameters to consider, I would appreciate your guidance. Thank you.
I asked a question in the thread of
I'd like to repost it here:
Stage 1:
Imagine a pair of proton and electron, i.e. a hydrogen atom travels in space. The electron is orbiting classically (gyroscope) or quantumly (combination of random gyroscopes) around the proton. Then a beam of light strikes the pair, and one photon is absorbed.
Say the photon is from a source traveling the same speed and direction as the hydrogen atom (resting frame), then it is easy that we can imagine that the energy is absorbed by the electron and makes the electron orbiting radius larger and rotation speed slower, i.e. with a bigger internal angular momentum but no speeding up as a pair because we "all believe" that photon has no mass. After a while, the electron will relax back to its ground state by emitting a series of lower-energy photons or one photon with the same energy. The angle does matter because the emitted photon seems to carry momentum and leave a push to the hydrogen in the opposite direction of the emission. This is the way I think will satisfy the observation of the solar sail problem when the material needs to be reflective and seems all photon momentum is used to create the solar pressure from the equation I pulled out from readings. Let's assume this emitted photon now strangely carries momentum although I don't see what is the difference between it and the absorbed parent.
Now my questions are,
- what is the mass of the hydrogen atom when it absorbs the photon and has not speeded up? Note the electron of the atom has a slower rotation speed, larger radius, and bigger angular momentum.
- what is the mass of the hydrogen atom when it has emitted the absorbed photon and speeded up?
- is the total energy conserved in this case?
- is the total mass conserved in this case?
- is the total momentum conserved in this case?
- is the total angular momentum conserved in this case?
Stage 2:
Now there is a pair of electron and proton moving away from us say at half the speed of light. This situation naturally occurs in the universe on the stars moving away from us or we can speed up ourselves and observe the atom stay still on Earth. And a beam of light hit it from behind and a photon gets absorbed. At a short moment, the hydrogen atom emits a photon to us and accelerates. Now repeat the above questions and adding one at the last, namely,
- What is the mass of hydrogen atom at the beginning?
- What is the mass of the atom after absorbing the photon?
- what is the mass of the atom after emission?
- Is mass conserved
- is energy conserved
- is momentum conserved
- is angular momentum conserved
- are the two photons the same as the two when still?
Because mathematically gravity has some similarity, the question can be pushing the solar system.
Stage 3:
The same as stage 2 but now move towards us.

Hello everybody
I am trying to calculate the surface energy of (001) cubic CsSnCl3 perovskite, I have read a nice article titled (Comparative First-Principles Calculations of SrTiO3, BaTiO3, PbTiO3 and CaTiO3 (001), (011) and (111) Surfaces), I have calculated total energies of the bulk and slabs of two terminations (CsCl and SnCl2), then I followed 1, 2 and 3 in the paper but the result is not reasonable and I do not know where I am doing wrong.
I have did calculation as follow:
1. I have calculated total energies of the bulk and slabs (Both relaxed and unrelaxed) and converted it to Joule.
2. Applying equation 1 to calculate unrelaxed energy. I have 45 atoms in both slabs together (22+23) and 5 atoms in the bulk so N is 9.
3. I have followed equations 2 and 3.
Any help or tip will be approciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi everyone
I'm trying to run this ONIOM optimisation calc using b3lyp/6-31g for the QM region and UFF for the MM region but I keep getting this error (shown below) saying that the angle bends are undefined
I've tried to specify the angles in one line at the bottom of my input (the .txt attached) but that doesn't seem to have worked.
Could someone please check my input and output file to see if I should be getting this error in the first place?
Any and all help is appreciated

hi,
I have a PDB file of small molecules as chemical compounds (Figure 1) but I want to know their atom type like the PDB file of similar small molecules which has atom types such as CA, CB, ... in the third column(Figure 2). do we have any webserver or tools to know it?
I thank you for helping me with this problem.
best regards

Although this numbering (e.g. isatin molecule) is always reproducible but why is this abstruse numbering followed in GaussView? Why atom-1 is given to fused carbon and nitrogen is given atom-15?
Hello RG Community:),
I have a ligand exhibiting penalties between 10-50 within a .str file generated via a CGenFF, the generated .prm file does not exactly match the ligand atoms nor the closest ! analogous parameter.
Example of one of the first penalty from this .str File:
BONDS
CG2O2 CG2R51 336.87 1.4215 ! 14C+H , from CG2O5 CG2R51, penalty= 10
the closest atoms from the single .prm file are:
CG2O2 CG2R61 254.00 1.4800 ! ZOIC, benzoic acid, MBOA, methylbenzoate, jal
CG2O5 CG2R61 254.00 1.4600 ! 3ACP, 3-acetylpyridine; BF6 BF7 C36 C37; PHMK, phenyl methyl ketone, mcs
since these atoms do not match, my understanding is that the analogy is not strong, accordingly suggestions for validation of this spring constant and equilibrium length?
Thanks if you have any suggestions:), Joel 🚀
I'm attepting to do NICS analysis on a reaction intermediate, but currently the molecule is oriented in a random way and the aromatic ring I want to analyse is not in the XY plane. Does anyone know how to reorient the coordinates of a molecule in gaussview without changing their relative positions? Currently the only way I've thought of is manually changing the cartesian coordinated but am hoping there's a method that won't require hours of labourious manual atom movements
In articles, researchers discuss about the charged ions in PBC structures using first principles investigation. How can we possibly provide charge to an atom in DFT during PBC investigation? e.g. Investigation of Na+ ion in a TiO2 structure.

Hello~
Now, I'm calculating with a Quantum Espresso program
I want to need Eu pseudopotential file with 4f orbital information. But I couldn't find that file, no matter how much I search on the internet. Because of this, I haven't been able to calculate and I'm only seeing the error screen for several days. I attatch the picture of error.[file1]
Q1) Is there anyone who can share the "Pseudopotential file of Eu atom" containing 4f-orbital information?
Or not
Currently, I have psedopotential file of Eu atom that only contains up to 5s, 5p & 6s(Eu orbital-configuration: 5s2 5p6 4f7 6s2 ).
Q2) Is there a way to add the information of 4f-orbital?
I attach the picture of pseudopotential that I have now.[file2]
Recently I got some pseudopotential file that presumed to contain information on 4f-orbital. But this file also doesn't work in Quatum
Espresso. I attatch this file[file3] and error screen[file4].
Q3) Is there a way to make Quantum Espresso recognize this file?
Thank you.
I have a molecule having N and S atoms, applying oxidation methods gives me 3 spots on TLC, how can I I determine the pr sence of N-oxide, sulfoxide or sulfone in it?
i have installed Burai 1.3.2 on ubuntu and it is not showing structures of atoms. i think issue is related to visualizing. if anyone encountered same problem and have a solution then please answer. I attached a picture as well
Greetings, everybody. I have generated a graphene sheet using the VMD program and saved the resulting file in the .gro format. Now I would like to use the GROMACS program to model the interaction between graphene and a solvent. To proceed, I require the topl.top and .itp files for my graphene sheet. If feasible, I would like to immobilize or freeze the graphene atoms prior to energy minimization in the simulation to avoid the folding or transfer of the graphene atoms. If somebody has developed such a system, please guide me. I will be highly thankful to you.
In most papers, X atoms occupies the tetrahedral sites {Wyckoff position (0,0,0) and (1/2,1/2,1/2) while the Y&Z elements are at (1/4,1/4,1/4) and (3/4,3/4,3/4) Wyckoff positions}. However, there are again papers that presents the position of the X atoms to be at the octahedral sites {Wyckoff position (1/4,1/4,1/4) & (3/4,3/4,3/4)} and that of Y&Z to be at Wyckoff position (0,0,0) and (1/2,1/2,1/2).
I need to generate POSCAR file and so I need to know the actual position of the atoms on the different lattice sites.
Hello everyone!
I have the question related to preparing of crystal structure for atomistic simulation.
I need 3*3*3 translated unit cell that opposite faces complement each other in.
I use experimental structure of crystal for starting. But after unit cell translation I have got big cell that opposite faces superimpose on one another and not complement each other (yellow border).
So I need to delete excessive atoms. But I don't know how I can check that my "manual cutting" is perfect? (i.e. the best way to do it) I'm afraid that my eyes can deceive me.
May be you have such experience and know how to make some additional objective examination?
Thank you for any answer!
The pdb file generally contains about 1000 atoms without hydrogen and my computer is not able to handle such a large number of atoms as i have planed to use Gaussian 09 for my work. So How many atoms should i consider for doing a proper research
Dear All,
We are trying to obtain either the value of the charge transferred to or the final charge of each atom in a compound through the Critic2 code. for example, we expect the Rock-salt structure to obtain the final charge values of 10 and 18 for Na and Cl, respectively. We can't observe any relevant quantity in our output files of Critic2 run. Also, running Charge.sh script utility, we get the following error message:
%% yt nonnm
!error! yt nonnm
ERROR(intgrid_driver): Unknown extra keyword
ERROR(intgrid_driver): Unknown extra keyword
STOP 1
I will be really grateful If you suggest any solution.
Hello. Sorry for asking this question in poor English.
I am a student studying organometallic chemistry. I am doing a TS calculation using gaussian16 to find a pathway for a catalytic reaction, but for some reason, it outputs a structure where the two molecules are far apart and not in a transition state.
Each molecule has been structure-optimized with optfreq, and the scan calculation of each molecule is used as the initial structure for the TS calculation.
I have done the same thing with the same keywords in the pre-reaction phase of the catalytic reaction, and it completes to TS without any problems.
What seems to be the problem?
I am currently trying to see if the "noeigentest" is not necessary. I used "noeigentest" in both failed and successful calculations, but I am not sure if "noeigentest" is appropriate for a calculation with 84 atoms.
I am trying to perform nbo calculations on an optimized structure using Gaussian software. I've included my input file as well as abbreviated NBO orbital interaction output. The separation of this molecule into unit 1 and unit 2 excludes orbital interactions of interest. Is there a way to force NBO calculations on a single molecular unit that includes all of the atoms in the structure?

Hi everyone,
As you know, in MD simulation of a biological system, typically, one atom is moved, followed by recalculating forced, then another atom is moved and so forth. Do you know if any of the MD simulation tools, GROMACS, NAMD, AMBER, etc., allows us to run the simulation such that all atoms are moved a single step of the simulation before recalculating forces? There was a study that showed an more accurate results when doing so.
Thank you in advance!

Hello, I have a difficulty in lattice relaxing of the EuTiO3 material with Quantum Espresso 7.1 version. EuTiO3 material is antiferromagnetic. Eu atom of this material have 4f-shell electrons and spin-polarization. Hence, Hubbard potential U & Hund exchange J values are needed to do "vc-relax". Other papers also use U&J potentials for optimization of this material, and I will give an example of application in one of them.
"Density functional calculations. Our first-principles calculations were carried out using the Vienna ab-initio simulation package (VASP)47 with the Perdew–Burke–Ernzerhof approximation to the exchange correlation functional48. Eu 4f electrons were treated with the GGA+U method, using Dudarev’s approach49, with U=6.0 eV and J=1.0 eV. Default projector augmented wave pseudopotentials were employed. A plane wave cutoff of 500 eV was used and the Brillouin zone was sampled using an 8×8×6 k-point grid."

I've tried solving this in many ways, but I keep failing. I need the know-how of experienced people. Would you help me?
I am a beginner at Quantum Espresso, so I would like a detailed explanation if possible. Thank you.
P.S.: I attach input & output files.
Hello everybody !
I am working on a medium size organic molecule (around 40 atoms) and I try to check the presence of a conical intersection between S1 and S0. I used DFT and TD-DFT to compute the PES of S0 and S1 in my molecule along different modes and motions but for now no conical intersection was identified.
Do you think it would be a possible and interesting approach to use TD-DFT/MD simulation to start from the S1 optimized geometry and apply temperature to check the evolution of the geometry in the S1 state of the molecule in time ? Will it go back to the S0 optimized geometry in the case of an easy accessible conical intersection ?
Thank you for any help you may provide and for your interesting comments about it.
This in-depth investigation delves into the consequences of simultaneously substituting Samarium (Sm) and Cadmium (Cd) in Co2X hexagonal ferrites, particularly in the presence of a hematite phase. Employing precise synthesis and characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, we explore the intricate details of the ferrite's structure, grain size, and morphology. Magnetic properties, encompassing saturation magnetization, coercivity, and magnetic anisotropy, are closely examined, unveiling the nuanced impact of Sm and Cd co-substitutions. Mössbauer spectroscopy provides valuable insights into hyperfine interactions and the local environments of iron atoms.
Furthermore, impedance spectroscopy and dielectric spectroscopy analyses reveal changes in electrical conductivity, permittivity, and dielectric loss tangent across varying frequencies due to the co-substitutions. The coexistence of a hematite phase is meticulously examined, with advanced characterization techniques shedding light on interfacial interactions and phase compositions. These outcomes significantly contribute to an enriched understanding of hexagonal ferrite materials, presenting possibilities to customize their properties for applications such as magnetic storage and microwave devices. In essence, this research not only advances fundamental knowledge in material science but also opens avenues for engineering ferrite materials with tailored functionalities.
🔑 Key Highlights:
- The surge in research papers reflects the growing significance of hexaferrites, with their diverse classes and tunable properties driven by transition metal and rare earth ion substitutions.
- The study investigates the impact of Sm and Cd co-substitutions on the structural, magnetic, and electric properties of Ba2-xSmxCo2CdyFe28-yO46 hexaferrites, revealing shifts in crystal lattice parameters, refined grain structures, enhanced saturation magnetization, altered local environments of iron atoms, increased electrical conductivity, and reduced dielectric loss tangent.

I am using vesta, and I want to adsorb Oxygen atom in the hollow site of my platinum slab surface
I am calculating the gruneisen parameter for a structure with 28 atoms in a 1x1x1 supercell and 224 in a 2x2x2 supercell, and I am having some issues with phonopy. When I try to run the calculation I get the following message:
invalid value encountered in true_divide
self._gruneisen = -edDe / self._delta_strain / self._eigenvalues / 2
I tried to increase the cutoff to solve this problem since it was the only solution I found in the internet, but I had no success.
Hello researchers,
I am trying to calculate the adsorption energy of adsorbent on the adsorbed surface. For example in case of Aluminum alloy, how can we calculate the adsorption energy of H+ on the aluminum surface.
I want to perform a protein-ligand MD simulation using Amber. I have generated ligand frcmod, lib, rst7, and prmtop files. Then, I loaded my complex file, which contained the ligand and protein in water (generated using Packmol-memgen). However, when I tried to save the rst7 and prmtop files for the complex, I encountered this error: 'FATAL: Atom .R<***> does not have a type.' I've attempted to resolve this issue multiple times, but it keeps happening. I followed the tutorial exactly as outlined on the AmberMD website ('Simulating a pharmaceutical compound using Antechamber and the Generalized Amber Force Field'). Surprisingly, the problem persists. even though I tried to use the same molecule, protein, and files provided on the website to check out if there were any problem with my own files and again i ended up with same problem. Can anyone help me figure this out?"
Stars, atoms and electrons are concepts in the same way a ball is: they represents something in reality in a more human friendly or Abstract way, (=conceptual element) that what they are i.e a star is a collection ofv10^128 particles, some of them under going nuclear fussion, a ball is a generslization of plasticity bearing objects of the size that are used by Humans to play
Is there a more adequate definition of what makes a concept that represents physical entities?
And, are these concepts ultimately scientific and independent of human-centered conceptions about reality?
The problem of reality of atoms isboth a problem of philosophy and science. Unkniwn to many, famous physicists refused the reality of atoms in early 20th C.
But my issue here is other:is there another solution to incorporatungbthermidynamucs in the mechanical framework of description of the world that bypasses the need for the reality of atoms? Has someone done so?
If so, it means a direction science has take is largely a matter or reference to a particular solution of unification, not of truth
I face difficulty due to symmetry.
This year’s NobelPrize laureate in physics Anne L’Huillier discovered that many different overtones of light arose when she transmitted infrared laser light through a noble gas.
Each overtone is a light wave with a given number of cycles for each cycle in the laser light. They are caused by the laser light interacting with atoms in the gas; it gives some electrons extra energy that is then emitted as light. L’Huillier has continued to explore this phenomenon, laying the ground for subsequent breakthroughs.
I'm working on molecular dynamic simulation of a protein-ligand complex. I tried using GROMACS, but it gives several errors whether I allow or ignore hydrogen eg "Atom HN1 in residue GLU 221 was not found in rtp entry GLU with 17 atoms
while sorting atoms.". NAMD and VMD seem complicated to me, and CHARMMS gives me errors
is there a way to refine my complex to prevent these errors? or is there a simpler MDS program/protocol I can use?
