Dear all,

Finally I succeed in compiling parallel version of SIESTA. But I wondering whether siesta could perform calculations like NEB/CI-NEB to search transition state and estimate the energy barrier for certain chemical reactions.

I found some work did by Zhipan Liu in Fudan University(china) perform more efficient to locate the transition state and estimate the energy barrier for chemical reactions. The applications of the algorithm with SIESTA were reported in J. AM. CHEM. SOC. 2007, 129, 2642, J. AM. CHEM. SOC. 2008, 130, 10996 etc. But I did not find it in Siesta 3.0b.

So how could I perform calculations to search transition state and estimate the energy barrier for chemical reactions using this version of siesta (3.0b).

thank you for reading
