چکیده
The hydrogen bond interaction between acetone and water is investigated at the ab initio MBPT/CC levels using different approximations and basis sets. At the highest level the binding energy is obtained as 5.6 kcal mol. Analysis of the electron correlation effects shows only a very mild influence on the binding energy. Study of the blue shift of the n! p transition of acetone in water shows that the hydrogen bond has a great contribution to the total shift. The use of the geometry optimized acetone–water cluster gives results in excellent but unrealistic agreement with the experimental result. The adequacy of using cluster structures and cluster models for studying solvent effects is analyzed. q 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Local exchange-correlation functionals are defined for different systems with spherical symmetry, by requiring that they reproduce the correct exchange-correlation energy and exchange-correlation potential (up to a constant). For comparison, the results with the uniform electron gas local density approximation and a generalized gradient approximation are also shown. q 2000 Elsevier Science B.V....

We investigate the e0ect on primitive words of point mutations (inserting or deleting symbols, substituting a symbol for another one), of morphisms, and of the operation of taking pre-xes. Several ways of producing primitive words are obtained in this framework. ? 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

We examine the effects of frequency variation along the reaction path in intramolecular or lattice modes on the rate constant for light atom transfer in the condensed phase. Accurate quantum mechanical calculations using the quasi-adiabatic propagator path integral representation of the flux–flux auto-correlation function reveal significant variations in the reaction rate compared with the cons...
