305. MOLMOL: Potential Energy Surfaces for the Interaction of Two Linear Molecules

by G. A. Parker and R. T. Pack, Group T-6, Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, University of California, Los Alamos, New Mexico 87545 and R. L. Snow, Department of Chemistry, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah 84601

This offering consists of two separate program, LMOLMO and SLAFIT. SLAFIT uses a linear least-squares method to fit the electron density of a linear molecule with a linear combination of Slater orbitals. LMOLMO uses the output of SLAFIT and rapidly calculates the interaction energy between two closed-shell linear molecules using the electron gas model.

The numerical methods and notation used are those of G. A. Parker, R. L. Snow and R. T. Pack, Chem. Phys. Lett., 33, 399 (1975). The electron gas method is that ofV. I.Gaydaenko andV. K. Nikulin, Chem. Phys. Lett., 2, 360 (1970); R. G. Gordon and Y. S. Kim, J. Chem. Phys., 56, 3122 (1972); A.I.M. Rae, Chem. Phys. Lett., 18, 574 (1973); and J. S. Cohen and R. T. Pack, J. Chem. Phys., 61, 2372 (1974).

The present program can be extended in a straightforward way to the calculation of polyatomic- polyatomic interactions with little loss of speed.
