A simple extension of the Newton-Raphson method is proposed that approximately accounts for anharmonicity in bond-stretching coordinates. By modeling each bonded distance in a polyatomic molecule as a Morse oscillator with no anharmonic stretch-stretch or stretch-bend coupling, a multiplicative corr

A study of stationary points of interest on the surface of (CsHs)s in presented. Reported observations of splittings of lines in the infrared spectrum of the acetylene trimer suggest strongly that there are several conformations of interest that need to be identified. It is confirmed by ab initio ca
We present a method for the location and optimization of an intersection energy point between two potential energy surfaces. The procedure directly optimizes the excited state energy using a quasi-NewtonαRaphson method coupled with a restricted step algorithm. A linear transformation is also used fo
