Hi CCLers!
Thanks to Liang Lou from Wavefunction I know now the parameter values
for electrostatic potential fit used in Spartan. Could by, that someone
else is interested in those values, so I post them to the list:
Liang Lou:
> (1) the "upper bond" is 5.0 angs for dft and 5.5 angs for ab
initio and
> semiempirical.
(i.e., the maximum distance for grid points to be included in the
calculation)
> (2) the vdW radii up to Xe:
(within those radii the grid points are excluded from calculation)

Have a nice day!
