TLDR
Specific developments discussed include fast methods for density functional theory calculations, linear scaling evaluation of energies, NMR chemical shifts and electric properties, fast auxiliary basis function methods for correlated energies and gradients, equation-of-motion coupled cluster methods for ground and excited states, geminal wavefunctions, embedding methods and techniques for exploring potential energy surfaces.
Abstract
Advances in theory and algorithms for electronic structure calculations must be incorporated into program packages to enable them to become routinely used by the broader chemical community. This work reviews advances made over the past five years or so that constitute the major improvements contained in a new release of the Q-Chem quantum chemistry package, together with illustrative timings and applications. Specific developments discussed include fast methods for density functional theory calculations, linear scaling evaluation of energies, NMR chemical shifts and electric properties, fast auxiliary basis function methods for correlated energies and gradients, equation-of-motion coupled cluster methods for ground and excited states, geminal wavefunctions, embedding methods and techniques for exploring potential energy surfaces.

Ab initio calculation of the photoelectron spectra of the hydroxycarbene diradicals.

TL;DR: Photoelectron spectra of the cis and trans isomers of HCOH were computed using vibrational wave functions calculated by diagonalizing the Watson Hamiltonian, including up to four mode couplings, using the full-dimensional CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ potential energy surfaces.

Understanding Coherent Transport through π-Stacked Systems upon Spatial Dislocation†

TL;DR: It is shown that whereas these models agree reasonably well for predictions of near-resonant transport in a small stack of substituted benzene molecules, the relationship between these two approaches is less clear in larger structures, where the mechanisms and pathways can become more complex.

Inclusion of radiation damage dynamics in high-resolution transmission electron microscopy image simulations: The example of graphene

TL;DR: In this article, a computational approach was proposed to simulate the structural transformation of a small graphene sample into a fullerene cage under the 80 keV electron beam, and the simulated series of images showed the evolution of a graphene sample under this energy level.

Intrinsic contribution of the 2′-hydroxyl to RNA conformational heterogeneity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the orientation of 2′-hydroxyl significantly alters the intrinsic flexibility of the phosphodiester backbone, favoring the A-form in duplex RNA when it is in the base orientation and facilitating sampling of a wide range of noncanonical, tertiary structures when it was in the O3′ orientation.

Concerted Cyclization of Lanosterol C-Ring and D-Ring Under Human Oxidosqualene Cyclase Catalysis: An ab Initio QM/MM MD Study.

TL;DR: State-of-the-art ab initio QM/MM MD simulations are employed to investigate the detailed cyclization mechanism of C-ring and D-ring formation and reveal that the C and D rings are formed near-synchronously from a stable "6-6-5" ring intermediate.

Density‐functional thermochemistry. III. The role of exact exchange

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical exchange correlation functional with local spin density, gradient, and exact exchange terms was proposed. But this functional performed significantly better than previous functionals with gradient corrections only, and fits experimental atomization energies with an impressively small average absolute deviation of 2.4 kcal/mol.

Gaussian basis sets for use in correlated molecular calculations. I. The atoms boron through neon and hydrogen

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed study of correlation effects in the oxygen atom was conducted, and it was shown that primitive basis sets of primitive Gaussian functions effectively and efficiently describe correlation effects.

General atomic and molecular electronic structure system

TL;DR: A description of the ab initio quantum chemistry package GAMESS, which can be treated with wave functions ranging from the simplest closed‐shell case up to a general MCSCF case, permitting calculations at the necessary level of sophistication.
