TLDR
The relationship of the anharmonic force constants in curvilinear internal coordinates to the observed vibration-rotation spectrum of a molecule is reviewed in this paper, where a simplified method of setting up the required non-linear coordinate transformations is described: this makes use of an L tensor, which is a straightforward generalization of the L matrix used in the customary description of harmonic force constant calculations.
Abstract
The relationship of the anharmonic force constants in curvilinear internal coordinates to the observed vibration-rotation spectrum of a molecule is reviewed. A simplified method of setting up the required non-linear coordinate transformations is described: this makes use of an L tensor, which is a straightforward generalization of the L matrix used in the customary description of harmonic force constant calculations. General formulae for the L tensor elements, in terms of the familiar L matrix elements, are presented. The use of non-linear symmetry coordinates and redundancies are described. Sample calculations on the water and ammonia molecules are reported.

Solution of the Schrödinger equation by a spectral method II: Vibrational energy levels of triatomic molecules

TL;DR: The spectral method as discussed by the authors utilizes numerical solutions to the time-dependent Schrodinger equation to generate the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the timeindependent Schröter equation.

Basis-set convergence of the energy in molecular Hartree–Fock calculations

TL;DR: In this paper, the Hartree-Fock total energy and binding energy were investigated for the correlation-consistent cc-pVXZ basis sets, and the basis set errors for the total energy (Δ E ) fit an exponential form better than a power form.

A practical method for the use of curvilinear coordinates in calculations of normal-mode-projected displacements and Duschinsky rotation matrices for large molecules

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe an approximate method by which curvilinear normal-mode-projected displacements and hence Franck-Condon factors, reorganization energies, and vibronic coupling constants, as well as Duschinsky rotation matrices, can be evaluated for large systems.

An improved potential for non-rigid water molecules in the liquid phase

TL;DR: In this article, a modification of the central-force model for liquid water is proposed; a spectroscopic potential is adapted to describe the intramolecular interactions, and liquid shifts of internal vibrational frequencies obtained from MD simulations are in good agreement with available spectroscopy data.

Simplification of the molecular vibration-rotation hamiltonian

TL;DR: In this paper, the Darling-Dennison vibration-rotation hamiltonian for a non-linear molecule is rearranged to the form: the order of the factors in the first term is immaterial, on account of the relation.
