Abstract:

The Potential Energy Surface PES of (H2)2 dimer has been investigated, using five simple rigid rotor models. These models are called: head to head, symmetric side to side, L , steplike and T model. All calculations were done at two levels of ab initio  methods: MP2(Full) and QCISD (T,Full) using cc-pVTZ basis set at singlet state of spin multiplicity. The results of scanning PES were then fitted to Taylor series up to 15 terms to obtain the equilibrium distances and interaction energies between  pairs of H2 molecules.The standard deviation of the residuals in fitting procedure  is well  below 10-9 in all cases.L  model has been found to be the  most  stable  one instead of previously reported T model and 7 times more stable than other models.The validity of  hard sphere approximation was also tested by solving simple mathematical equation and found to be no longer valid in these interactions.

SIMPLE: software for ab inito reconstruction of flexible single-particles

We have developed an ab initio single-particle 3D reconstruction algorithm for cryo-EM that does not rely on contrast enhancement by negative staining, assumptions about particle symmetry, or knowledge about the character of the heterogeneity [1-3]. Here we announce the release of the methods as an open source program package SIMPLE (Single-particle IMage Processing Linux Engine). SIMPLE enable...

Anion photoelectron spectroscopy and high level ab init io calculations of the halide -acetylene dimer complexes

Anion photoelectron spectra are presented for the halide-acetylene complexes, X– · · · C2H2 where X = Cl, Br, and I. Electron binding energies are determined to be 4.1, 3.8 and 3.4 eV respectively. Results from CCSD(T) calculations are presented for the neutral halogen-acetylene complexes. Two minima are predicted corresponding to a linear C∞v and T-shaped C2v geometry, with the T-shaped geomet...

A Bench Mark Experiment for Minimization Algorithms

In this paper we suggest a single bench mark problem family for use in evaluating unconstrained minimization algorithms or routines. In essence, this problem consists of measuring, for each algorithm, the rate at which it descends an unlimited helical valley. The periodic nature of the problem allows us to exploit affine scale invariance properties of the algorithm. As a result, the capacity of...

High-level Behavior Representation Languages Revisited

There has only been a short history of high level languages to model human cognition based on cognitive architectures. TAQL is an early example (Yost, 1993). TAQL showed a large (3x) speed increase over plain Soar, but because it did not support Soar’s learning mechanism and because Soar changed soon after its release, TAQL’s impact was not as great as its developer probably would have liked. I...

High level test bench generation using software engineering concepts

The tool to be presented in the panel deals with validation of VHDL descriptions at the early phase of the design of a digital system. Our approach consists in generating test data from a given VHDL behavioral description. The validation is achieved by comparing the results obtained using the simulation of the VHDL description within the test data and the results which should have been obtained...
