There are three files that are **included** by this command file:

  1. pyr.mom : contains the molecular geometry and multipole moments.
  2. pyr2-disp.pot : Contains the dispersion coefficients.
  3. pyr2.geom : Contains a set of dimer geometries.

Here is what the multipole moment file should contain:

Save this into file //pyr.mom//. Include all blank lines. The format of this file has been described on the main Orient Energy Calculations page.

The dispersion coefficients for this calculation have been provided on a separate page. Copy the dispersion model provided there into a file called //pyr2-disp.pot//. The //.pot// ending signifies that this is a potential file.

The dimer geometry file //pyr2.geom// will be provided on the main dispersion page.

Check!!!

Have you got the following files?
