✦ Synopsis


The electronic structure and bonding of UF, and UF; are studied within a relativistic framework using the MOLFDIR program package. A stronger bonding but more ionic molecule is found if one compares the relativistic with the nonrelativistic results. The first peak in the photoelectron spectrum of Karlsson et al. is assigned to the 12y,, component of the 4t,, orbital, in agreement with other theoretical and experimental results. Good agreement is found between the experimental and theoretical 5f spectrum UF; . Some properties, like the dissociation energy and electron affinity, are calculated and the necessity of a fully relativistic framework is shown. The Breit interaction has an effect on the core spinors and the spin-orbit splitting of these spinors but the influence on the valence spectrum is negligible.

## Abstract Noncovalent interactions between four aromatic amino acid core rings and polycyclic hydrocarbons (up to 58 carbon atoms) were investigated at the post–Hartree–Fock level of theory and with the aid of the density functional theory. In particular, the intermolecular interaction energy was
