The present work aims to establish the utility of dispersion-corrected density functional theory for potential energy curves of the benzene dimer, a problem that has received significant attention for a long time. The interaction energies of parallel-stacked, T-shaped and parallel-displaced benzene dimer configurations have been evaluated using both dispersion- and normal gradient-corrected Per...

The authors present a new potential energy curve, electric dipole moment function, and spin-orbit coupling function for OH in the X 2Pi state, based on high-level ab initio calculations. These properties, combined with a spectroscopically parametrized lambda-type doubling Hamiltonian, are used to compute the Einstein A coefficients and photoabsorption cross sections for the OH Meinel transition...

We have carried out the first calculations of the infrared absorption spectrum of cyclic-N(3). Accurate vibrational energies and wave functions computed with incorporation of the geometric phase effect (via gauge theory) and using an ab initio potential energy surface were employed in this work. A sophisticated fully dimensional dipole moment function was constructed using accurate ab initio ca...

Accurate infrared spectra of the two hydroxycarbene isomers are computed by diagonalizing the Watson Hamiltonian including up to four mode couplings using full dimensional potential energy and dipole moment surfaces calculated at the CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ (frozen core) and CCSD6-311G(**) (all electrons correlated) levels, respectively. Anharmonic corrections are found to be very important for these e...

The O-H stretching vibrational overtone spectrum of the water dimer has been calculated with the dimer modeled as two individually vibrating monomer units. Vibrational term values and absorption intensities have been obtained variationally with a computed dipole moment surface and an internal coordinate Hamiltonian, which consists of exact kinetic energy operators within the Born-Oppenheimer ap...

Calculations are reported on the rotation-vibration energy levels of ammonia with associated transition intensities. A potential energy surface obtained from coupled cluster CCSD(T) calculations and subsequent fitting against experimental data is further refined by a slight adjustment of the equilibrium geometry, which leads to a significant improvement in the rotational energy level structure....

The low-energy capture of dipolar diatomic molecules in an open electronic state by ions is usually considered to be induced by the first-order charge-permanent dipole interaction with other terms of the long-range potential playing a minor role. If the molecular dipole moment is anomalously small (as is the case for slightly asymmetrical molecules), however, the situation changes, and the capt...

Given the large energy required for its electronic excitation, the most important properties of the water molecule are governed by its ground potential energy surface (PES). Novel experiments are now able to probe this surface over a very extended energy range, requiring new theoretical procedures for their interpretation. As part of this study, a new, accurate, global spectroscopic-quality PES...

Recently, we showed that the effect of dipole modifiers (flavonoids and styrylpyridinium dyes) on the conductance of single amphotericin B (AmB) channels in sterol-containing lipid bilayers primarily resulted from changes in the membrane dipole potential. The present study examines the effect of dipole modifiers on the AmB multi-channel activity. The addition of phloretin to cholesterol-contain...

In this paper, inference model is proposed so as to analyze nonlinearly loaded dipole antenna. In modeling process, linear and nonlinear behavior of the problem is saved as simple and unchanged membership functions and the effect of incident wave on the induced voltage at different harmonies are then extracted easily. Consequently the model achieved is more efficient than previous studies using...
