Small nickel clusters up to the tetramer are investigated within the framework of the local spin density functional theory. Several competitive states are studied for the dimer. Both the geometry and the spin state are optimized for several starting symmetries in the case of the trimer and the tetra

Small molybdenum clusters up to the tetramer are investigated within the framework of the density functional theory. Both the geometry and the spin state are optimized for the dimer, trimer, and the tetramer. Moreover, all those calculations are followed by a vibrational analysis to discriminate bet
We present the results of a density functional calculation on adsorption of O 2 , CO, and their coadsorption at various sites of neutral, cationic, and anionic Pd 4 clusters. For all the clusters, the dissociative adsorption of oxygen sitting on Pd bridge sites is found to be preferable. Both O 2 an
We investigate the structural, vibrational, and energetic properties of [Be( HzO),]\*+ clusters with n = 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 water molecules, relevant to Be \*+ hydration. The Becke exchange gradient-corrected local density approximation is used in the framework of a pseudopotential representation of
