Routine<br />
Purpose<br />
qmc write<br />
Writes the gwfn.data file<br />
re sum<br />
Resums a CIS/TD-DFT wave function<br />
read G9xout Reads the output file produced by the gaussian job. Gets<br />
the nuclear-nuclear potential energy, CIS/TD-DFT/CAS<br />
expansion (if present) and HF eigenvalues<br />
read fchk<br />
Reads the formatted checkpoint file produced by the gaussian<br />
job. Gets the MOs etc.<br />
rejig<br />
MODULE—contains numsrt and hence prototypes it which<br />
is necessary because it has an optional argument<br />
resum cas<br />
Partially resums a CAS expansion<br />
set parameter values Sets the value <strong>of</strong> Pi and related constants<br />
shell centres Identifies the positions <strong>of</strong> the distinct shell centres and store<br />
the first shell index corresponding to each<br />
sum degen excite Called by analyse cis. Loops over excitations out <strong>of</strong> a<br />
given range (i–j) <strong>of</strong> (degenerate) occ. MOs and sums those<br />
that correspond to degenerate final (virtual) MOs. Outputs<br />
the results to a fromi j.dat file.<br />
user control<br />
Calls the major reading routines and asks the user about<br />
excited states and resumming<br />
wfn construct<br />
wfn test<br />
Plot an MO (debugging option). Called by wfn test<br />
Asks user about plotting and normalization testing. Optionally<br />
calls wfn construct and normalization check.<br />
8.6.5 Confession<br />
The guy who wrote this left Cambridge years ago and nobody here understands how this works or<br />
has ever used gaussian.<br />
Here is a sequence <strong>of</strong> emails between me (MDT) and Katie Schwarz which might help for some things.<br />
Dear Mike Towler,<br />
I am a graduate student in Richard Hennig’s group, and we have been studying<br />
the benzene dimer with <strong>CASINO</strong>. I have recently started performing CISD<br />
calculations in Gaussian03 for <strong>CASINO</strong>, and I spent a very long time trying<br />
to figure out how to output all <strong>of</strong> the determinant coefficients. I emailed<br />
Gaussian, and they suggested using the IOp 9/28, which has worked for me.<br />
Richard mentioned that this may also be useful to you (or to people who use<br />
the <strong>CASINO</strong> <strong>manual</strong>), so I am sending this information along.<br />
Hopefully it will save someone from scrolling through the IOps!<br />
-Katie Schwarz<br />
Dear Katie,<br />
Thanks for this info.<br />
However - I have to confess I’ve never used Gaussian or the converter (which<br />
was written by some student who disappeared about ten years ago) and I’m not<br />
quite sure what your email means. Could you elaborate?<br />
Also, someone just asked me whether the converter will work in the<br />
unrestricted CI case. Did you happen to notice whether this is the case? (just<br />
to save me the trouble <strong>of</strong> analyzing the source code - I presume the info is not<br />
in the <strong>manual</strong>..).<br />
Best wishes,<br />
Mike<br />
Hi Mike,<br />
To try to answer your question about gaussiantoqmc and the unrestricted CI<br />
case: I don’t think that gaussiantoqmc will work for full, unrestricted CI, and<br />
it definitely doesn’t work for unrestricted CISD. I personally couldn’t make<br />
