Gaussian‐Type Functions for Polyatomic Systems. II

TL;DR: In this article, the use of a linear combination of Gaussian type orbitals (CGTO) instead of an individual Gaussian-type orbital (GTO) as a unit of basis functions for large-scale molecular calculations is discussed.

Ab initio calculation of force constants and equilibrium geometries in polyatomic molecules

TL;DR: In this article, it is suggested that force constants should be calculated by differentiating the forces numerically, which is numerically more accurate and requires less computation than the customary one of differentiating energy numerically twice.
