Abstract
The prospect of constructing global electric quadrupole moment functions (EQMFs) of diatomic molecules by morphing their theoretical approximants within the framework of the reduced radial curve (RRC) approach is explored by performing model calculations for the ground electronic states of H2 and HF. The reduced quadrupole moment curves probed, constructed for a set of differently accurate theoretical EQMFs, coincide with their best many-parameter analytic counterparts so closely that they can be used as their accurate few-parameter representations. No other such functional representation is available in the literature.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation invites new and original contributions with the understanding that, if accepted, they will not be published elsewhere. Papers reporting new theories, methodology, and/or important applications in quantum electronic structure, molecular dynamics, and statistical mechanics are appropriate for submission to this Journal. Specific topics include advances in or applications of ab initio quantum mechanics, density functional theory, design and properties of new materials, surface science, Monte Carlo simulations, solvation models, QM/MM calculations, biomolecular structure prediction, and molecular dynamics in the broadest sense including gas-phase dynamics, ab initio dynamics, biomolecular dynamics, and protein folding. The Journal does not consider papers that are straightforward applications of known methods including DFT and molecular dynamics. The Journal favors submissions that include advances in theory or methodology with applications to compelling problems.
