505. SURVIB: Potential Energy and Property Surface
Fitting and Vibrational Analysis, Including
Anharmonicity, for Polyatomic Systems
by Lawrence B. Harding, Theoretical Chemistry Group,
Chemistry Division, Argonne National Laboratory,
Argonne, Illinois 60439 and Walter C. Ermler,
Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering,
Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, New Jersey
07030
SURVIB performs internal coordinate least-squares fits
to a variety of analytical forms, searches for
equilibrium and saddle points, carries out normal mode
analyses, provides power series expansions in terms of
normal coordinates, calculates anharmonicity and
Coriolis corrections, and calculates vibrational
expectation values for polyatomic potential energy and
property surfaces.1 Input is in the form of values of
total energies and properties for geometric
configurations of the nuclei of nonlinear polyatomic
systems. The normal mode eigenvectors, as well as both
the internal and normal coordinate expansion
coefficients, are printed and may be saved on a disk
file. This also permits the use of force constants
derived from experiment or other theoretical surfaces
to be used as input to the normal mode analysis and
following sections.The vibrational analysis is
presented in the form of harmonic and anharmonic
spectroscopic constants as derived according to second-
order perturbation theory. Vibrational energies and
property expectation values for desired states are
computed using these spectroscopic constants.
