input file for iodine compounds


Clicked A Few Times
Dear community
                        I am trying to include spin orbit effects in some of my iodine systems via ZORA approximation as implemented in NWChem. I would really appreciate if somebody could please confirm that I am using the correct input file:

start hio3

charge 0

Geometry units angstroms
I -0.25239100 0.06014500 0.00000000

Your input includes scalar relativistic corrections through ZORA but not spin-orbit corrections. If you want spin-orbit, see http://nwchemgit.github.io/index.php/Release66:Density_Functional_Theory_for_Molecules#Spin-...
