I am giving a seminar on applications of theory in industry.  Now I have done this many times in the past, mostly to undergrad and grad students  who are comfortable with theory, though in varying degrees.  The next challenge is to give one in an undergraduate department where theory in detail is not appropriate, but I can give some black box descriptions of methods and results.  What would be nice, I'm told, would be some appropriate "cool graphics."  I'm not strong in the bio/pharma area, but do understand a bit of the importance of docking, etc.  Demoing some dynamics results on a simple reaction could be interesting, for example.

I'm most receptive to any and all suggestions, and any demos that might be available..

Many thanks!!

What would be nice, I'm > told, would be some appropriate "cool graphics." I'm not the right person for reaction paths or docking -- both of those would be excellent for such a talk. I have gotten a lot of interest from showing simple things: * A live geometry optimization using molecular mechanics -- the molecule "pops" from a bad initial geometry into a better one and then continues to "squirm" (actual quotes). * Conformational / rotor searching on a larger molecule -- showing how different conformers are sampled to find the local minima. * Molecular dynamics Animations of molecular vibrations and even simple pictures of molecular orbitals are often interesting for undergraduates. Maybe we need to get some animations like this onto CCL.net or YouTube. (The latter has some great experimental demos, so why not theory?)

(Some minor bugs of older programs have also been corrected.) Most of these programs are devoted to post-processing of the results obtained in a Gaussian run - for other program-systems the interfacing should be solved. The new programs are: 1. Program CIS-T A program permitting to present the results of a CIS, TD-HF or TD-DFT calculation in a maximally compact form by using the "singular value decomposition" algorithm, and to obtain the natural orbitals of the excited states, characterizing the electron excitations of the individual chromophores. The visualization of these orbitals can also be made - e.g. by invoking the MOLDEN program. The algorithms are described in I. Mayer, Chem. Phys. Letters 437, 284 (2007) and ibid. 443, 420 (2007). The program utilizes the Gaussian output file only, and also produces a copy of latter with the modified orbitals inserted. 2. Program ENPART (Former HFx) a) Bond order and valence calculation according to I. Mayer, Chem. Phys. Letters 97, 270 (1083) etc. b) Decomposition of the HF energy (closed shells) into atomic and diatomic components according to the schemes discussed in I. Mayer, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 8, 4630 (2006). 3. Program BO-SPIN a) Bond order and valence calculation according to I. Mayer, Chem. Phys. Letters 97, 270 (1983), for open shells IJQC 26, 73 (1986), etc. b) Decomposition of the expectation value into atomic and diatomic components according to the scheme described in I. Mayer, Chem. Phys. Letters 440, 357 (2007). That is useful to identify local spins (e.g. on transition metals) which can be obtained in the UHF framework. The program is applicable for large systems (up to 2000 orbitals) and can easily be extended further. Programs ENPART and BO-SPIN use my original bond order routine of 1982/83 and some routines from the program APOST by I. Mayer and A. Hamza (Budapest, 2000). They require only a formatted checkpoint file produced in a Gaussian run (G92...G03). Please send any remarks and questions to the e-mail mayer,+,chemres.hu.
