TLDR
In this paper, the local kinetic G( r ), potential V( r ), and total energy densities, calculated at the critical points of 37 H⋯F closed-shell interactions by quantum mechanical methods, have been compared to their estimated values obtained by using an approximate evaluation of G(r ) and the local form of the virial theorem.

Chemical bonding in crystals: new directions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the relationship between the particle localization function (ELF) and the Laplacian of the electron density, and the use of approximated ELF and LOL, as derived from the density functional form of the positive kinetic energy density.

Universal Features of the Electron Density Distribution in Hydrogen‐Bonding Regions: A Comprehensive Study Involving H⋅⋅⋅X (X=H, C, N, O, F, S, Cl, π) Interactions

TL;DR: Topological analyses of the theoretically calculated electron densities for a large set of 163 hydrogen-bonded complexes show that HX interactions can be classified in families according to X (X=atom or pi orbital), and theoretical dependencies can be applied to the analysis of the experimental electron density for detecting either unconventional hydrogen bonds or problems in the modelling of the Experimental electron density.

Calculation of the average properties of atoms in molecules. II

TL;DR: In this paper, an algorithm for the calculation of the average properties of an atom in a molecule is described. But this algorithm is restricted to the case where the atom is defined within the topological theory of molecular structure, a theory which defines atoms, bonds, structure and structural stability in terms of a system's charge distribution.
