Category: Interface Improvements Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Rene Kanters (rkanters) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: higher than d orbitals in MOs Initial Comment: I was wondering whether it would be possible to have Jmol display MOs from quantum programs that are higher than the d orbitals. I understand that currently Jmol ignores those oribitals so as long as an orbital one looks at doesn't have much f (g, h, i) contributions it should not affect the visual part much, but I wonder whether that is something that could be added without too much trouble... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Date: 2010-06-18 11:05 Message: I think you just have to run the calculation with and without G orbitals to see what difference it makes. It's not a huge amount of code, but I don't know what the functions are, so it would definitely take some effort -- If you want to implement it, you certainly are welcome to. Good student project! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Rene Kanters (rkanters) Date: 2010-06-18 08:11 Message: Sorry about the mistake. I knew it does f's :-). Without being able to visualize the orbitals with and without the g (and higher) AO contributions it is hard to say whether the effect is large or not. You may be right indeed that it will not, but it would be nice to be able to see g orbitals even if they only contribute to virtual orbitals (like the Sn example I provided for the spherical/cartesian tests. I was wondering whether it may be (for you :-) and easy extension to what is already available. If it is then forget that I asked, if you would like to consider I think it would be a nice feature (that is why I posted it with feature requests). I'll talk to one of the students here who does some Sn calculations that involve g orbitals in the basis set to set up a calculation to get a g03 ouput file for that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bob Hanson (hansonr) Date: 2010-06-18 06:42 Message: Jmol handles up through F orbitals. Hard to believe there's a significant visual contribution from G,H,I.
