Dear Alvaro!
After your additional comments I understood what you want. It is not necessary
to do atomic calculations explicitly to determine Hirshfeld charges because the
program Gaussian do necessary calculations internally. It is the reason why you
didnt notice the atomic calculations. I dont know technical details about
normalization etc. I dont have Gaussian 03 Programmers reference. And I dont
know is the calculation atomic or not.
But I know that in the article
F. L. Hirshfeld, Bonded-Atom Fragments for Describing
Molecular Charge Densities, Theoret. Claim. Acta (Berl.) 44, 129-138 (1977)
the promolecule density at point r is written algebraically as
ro_pro(r)=sum_i[ro_i_at(r)]
where the functions p_i_at are suitably positioned, _spherically averaged
ground-state atomic
densities_ p. 130
Additional technical details you can see in

I want to hope that my modest comments are useful.

Dear Ol Ga,
First, thanks so much by your answer.
If the program does not make atomic calculations to
have the density of isolated atoms, then these
densities come from a database. Here is my question,
how is the database done?

Dear Alvaro!
It is necessary to type 6D 10F in route section.
It is not necessary to do atomic calculations. There are my answers if I
understand you.
F. DE PROFT, ALSENOY, PEETERS, LANGENAEKER, GEERLINGS
Atomic Charges, Dipole Moments, and Fukui Functions
Using the Hirshfeld Partitioning of the Electron Density, J Comput Chem 23:
11981209, 2002
the density constructed from superimposing the isolated electron densities of
the atoms present at their position in
the molecule (the so-called promolecule density) p. 1199
This approach is based on the idea to describe the molecule by dividing it into
atoms and see how these atoms differ from the
isolated atoms. p. 1199

Dear CCL readers,
I found the option IOP(6/79=1) to get Hirshfeld charges in Gaussian03.
I cannot notice the atomic calculations, how the promolecule density is build?
Is there a specific basis set to work with that?
Thanks in advance
Alvaro
