  Hi,
  I have carried out conformarional searches on metal complexes of
  calixarenes - a class of macrocycle - by varying 15-20 torsional
  bonds per complex. I would like to carry out a population analysis
  based on the relative energy differences.
  However, I don't know what the degeneracy factors are for torsional
  states. Could anyone give me some advice (specific or general) on how
  to calculate these factors.
  Kind rgds,
  Paddy.
