I am totally new to Gaussian03 and would like to do some simple calculations for molecular oxygen. I would like to calculate two potential surfaces (actually curves since the internuclear distance is the only variable) of O2, i.e., the ground state X Sigma_g triplet and one of the excited states, i.e., B Sigma_g triplet, both states are "-" in parity. Moreover, I would like to calculate the transition dipole between the two states as a function of the internuclear distance. I read part of the Gaussian docs but thought some of you must have done this, so I thought to ask for your help. Thank you in advance! --Terry
