Description
-----------
.. xmldoc:: %%Description:
The Nemo program of the molcas program system generates:
fitting of potential surfaces, energy optimizations, potential curves and simulation parameters.
The :program:`NEMO` is a potential analyzis package that calculates interaction energies between molecules. The package uses input files from :program:`MPPROP` and :program:`MKNEMOPOT`.
The package was originally a set of programs that has been totaly rewritten and put together into one program. The package
are capable of doing fitting of potential surfaces, energy optimization between molecules, calculate some specific potential curves and generate simulation parameters for rigid molecules.
The theoretical background stands in perturbation theory. The interaction
energy between two molecules can be described by three quantum chemical
calculations. One quantum chemical calculation for each of the monomers
and one calculation for the two molecules together i.e. the dimer. The
energy for the two monomers are then subtracted from the dimer
calculation. That is done for each configuration, i.e. coordinate set
for a dimer calculation, given by the input to :program:`MKNEMOPOT`.
The calculations are set up by the :program:`MKNEMOPOT` package and to
performe those calculations it is recommended to read the manual for
the :program:`MKNEMOPOT` package. The interaction energy can also be
described in the classical energy terms electrostatic, induction dispersion,
repulsion and chargetransfer. Where, a good description the first three
energy terms can be given by distributed multipole expansions and distributed
polarizabilities. The last two energy terms are harder to predict and
are of quantum chemical origin. The reason for calculating the interaction
energy quantum chemically is that this reference energy will be used for
the description of the repulsion(/chargetransfer) parameters. The repulsive
reference energy term is achieved by subtracting the energy for the electrostatic,
induction and dispersion from the reference energy. Note here that the
dispersion energy is only added if the reference energy is performed
with a method that includes true dynamic correlation, i.e. when the energy
includes the London dispersion term. The reference energy will also include
a charge transfer term if it is defined by the user. An estimation of the
repulsive energy term can now be fitted to the reference repulsive energy
term by using the FITPar subprogram in the :program:`NEMO` program. The
fitted parameters are classified in elements and type. Where a hydrogen
atom is element 1 and can be classified in different types depending on
their chemical environment. This information is supplied with the MpProp
file together with coordinates, multipole and polarizabilities of a
molecule. The MpProp file is an output from the :program:`MPPROP` or
:program:`LOPROP` program. A MpProp file does not always contain all the
information needed to run the :program:`NEMO` program. Thus, it is important
have look directly in the file and do your prefered changes before using
it. It can for example be to change the type of a hydrogen atom. If we
take the ethanol molecule as an example. It is composed of two carbons,
five hydrogens and one oxygen atoms. Here we can define three different
type of hydrogens that are bonded to C1, C2 and O1 respectively. The two
carbons in the molecule can of course also be defined to be of different
type. For each defined type there excists two corresponding parameters for
the repulsion energy. These are the ones that are varied to in the fitting
procedure.
The input file comming from the :program:`MKNEMOPOT` program can contain
a cluster definition. A cluster is defined as a supermolecule containing
one/several different/equal molecules. The interaction energy is thus
defined as the interaction between different clusters.
The POTSurf subprogram produces potential energy curves between two
clusters. This is normally used to compare the fitted potential with the
result from a quantum chemical calculation. Whats happening is that one
of clusters are translated and rotated to a certain position. The moved
cluster is then translated along a displacement vector.
In the DIMEr subprogram an optimizition/minimizition of the energy between
two/several molecules is performed. The routine is not good and practical
for many molecules. Because, it was originally written to do the job for
two molecules which works pretty good.
The SIMPar program can produce input files for the :program:`MOLSIM` package.
.. _UG\:sec\:nemo_dependencies:
Dependencies
------------
The :program:`NEMO` program requires a nemo library.
The library is just a concatenation of several different :file:`nemo` files.
In order to run the FitPar subprogram in :program:`NEMO` a :file:`NEMO` file is required.
The :file:`NEMO` file is either autogenerated through the :program:`MKNEMOPOT` or it might be
generated by hand from some other potential.

:kword:`TRANslation`
The keyword should be followed by a line specifying up to five numbers. The first number specifies the type of potential coordinates.
In order to visulize the potential curve one has to define a translation coordinate.
The first column of the PotSurf file will consist of a coordinete specified by the iTrType parameter. The other parameters jTrType, kTrType ... are specified below.
Optional TRANslation parameters:
* **iTrType=0**
The coordinate will be the length of the translation vector. (Default)

jTrType=Atom1 and kTrType=Atom2 on molecule=lTrType and mTrType respectively. The molecules are given by the order of the apperence in the input section. The potential coordinate will be the distance between Atom1 and Atom2. Note that if the potential coordinate is constant if the molcules belong to the same cluster.
:kword:`DISFactor`
The keyword should be followed by a line specifying a scaling constant for the dispersion energy. (Default 1.0)
Optional SIMPar specific keywords
.................................
These keywords should begin by a DIMEr keyword and end with a END statement.
.. class:: keywordlist
:kword:`MOLEcules`
Specifies the start and the title of a new molecule. This means that every keyword after this
MOLEcule keyword will belong to the last specified MOLEcule.
:kword:`METHod`
Specifies the method to be used for the file to be opened.
The program will find another method if the specified method
cannot be found in the MPPROP file.
:kword:`MOLSim`
Tells the program to generate Molsim parameters and input files.
:kword:`EQUAlatoms`
This keyword should be followed by a line specifying two atom numbers that should treated as equal.
The atomic numbers are the numbers in sequence as they are found in the MPPROP file.
For example, a water molecule in gasphase has the two hydrogen atoms equal by symmetry.
They should thus be treated equally for the analysis in a simulation program. If the
MPPROP file has the atoms in the sequence O H H the example below makes the two hydrogen equal ::
EQUA
2 3
:kword:`NUMBer`
The keyword should by a line giving the number of latest molecule that will
be used in the latter simulation. This information will be written in the MOLSIM file.
:kword:`DISFactor`
The keyword should be followed by a line specifying a scaling constant for the dispersion energy. (Default 1.0)
Limitations
...........
The program package has no internal degrees of freedom.
The program cannot handle interactions including quadrupoles and higher.
The program cannot handle hyperpolarizabilities. For the time being we cannot handle more than two clusters.
