van der Waals radii used in Spartan (answer)



 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:

 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)
