Rotation–vibration spectra of icosahedral molecules. II. Icosahedral symmetry, vibrational eigenfrequencies, and normal modes of buckminsterfullerene
The icosahedral symmetry of molecules such as buckyball, B12H12−2, and C20H20, is analyzed using subgroup chain defined projection operators. The icosahedral analysis is used to...
Theory of<i>ab initio</i>molecular-dynamics calculations
The theoretical basis of the first-principles molecular dynamics introduced by Car and Parrinello [Phys. Rev. Lett. 55, 2471 (1985)] is investigated. We elucidate how the classi...
Harmonic dynamics of proteins: normal modes and fluctuations in bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor.
A normal mode analysis making use of an empirical potential function including local and nonlocal (nonbonded) interactions is performed for the bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibit...
Self-consistent molecular orbital methods. XXIII. A polarization-type basis set for second-row elements
The 6-31G* and 6-31G** basis sets previously introduced for first-row atoms have been extended through the second-row of the periodic table. Equilibrium geometries for one-heavy...
<i>Ab initio</i> study of phonons in wurtzite AlxGa1−xN alloys
We present a theoretical study of the zone-center optical phonons in wurtzite AlxGa1−xN alloys over the whole compositional range from pure GaN to pure AlN. The phonon modes are...
