✦ Synopsis

The work of Lionel Goodman is an example of appropriate use of the Ž . potential energy surface PES concept. It combines the best of the alternative, and often conflicting, views of molecules held by chemists and physicists. Chemists start with rigid and static molecular structures and then allow only reluctantly for a quantum dynamical behavior of the nuclei. On the other hand, physicists hold a much more dynamic, albeit more slippery, view. When detailed spectroscopies demand a more quantitatively precise description and prediction of molecular behavior, I propose to use the molecular Ž . coupled-cluster MCC method. The method, formulated in 1987, offers a rather atomic picture of a molecule and enables a unified quantum-dynamical description of its electrons and nuclei.
