β¦ Synopsis
The use of direct counts of molecular energy level degeneracies, P(Ej, at internal energy, E, in RRKM unimolecular reaction rate calculations is clarified. Highly accurate densities of states for use in practical rate calculations can be obtained by utilizing an energy level "grain" size of 1-S cm-' and by suitable averaging of P(E) over small energy intervals. An easi- ly programmed algorithm for rounding energy levels to multiples of this "grain" size is given and applied to sum and density calculations.

We have performed the relativistic molecular orbital calculations for the ground and UV excited states of UF6, using the discrete-variational Dirac-Slater method. For the ground state of UF6, the formation of the U-F bonding is explained by the relativistic MOs, in contrast to the non-relativistic M
