Monte Carlo verification of IMRT treatment plans on grid.

The eIMRT project is producing new remote computational tools for helping radiotherapists to plan and deliver treatments. The first available tool will be the IMRT treatment verification using Monte Carlo, which is a computational expensive problem that can be executed remotely on a GRID. In this paper, the current implementation of this process using GRID and SOA technologies is presented, describing the remote execution environment and the client.

Accurate intermolecular ground state potential of the Ar-N2 van der Waals complex.

After carrying out a systematic basis set convergence study, we evaluate several ground state potential energy surfaces of the Ar-N(2) van der Waals complex at the coupled cluster singles and doubles model including connected triples corrections. We use the aug-cc-pVXZ (X=5,Q,D) and the daug-cc-pVQZ basis sets augmented with a set of 3s3p2d1f1g (denoted 33211) and 3s3p2d2f1g (denoted 33221) midbond functions, respectively. aug-cc-pVTZ-33211 results were available in the literature.

Accurate intermolecular ground state potential of the Ne-N2 van der Waals complex.

Ab initio ground state potential energy surfaces are obtained from interaction energies calculated with the coupled cluster singles and doubles model including connected triples corrections [CCSD(T)] and the aug-cc-pVXZ (X=5,Q,T,D) basis sets augmented with two different sets of midbond functions (denoted 33221 and 33211). The aug-cc-pV5Z-33221 surface is characterized by a T-shaped 49.5 cm(-1) minimum at Re=3.

Fluorobenzene-argon ground-state intermolecular potential energy surface.

The ground-state intermolecular potential energy surface for the fluorobenzene-argon van der Waals complex is evaluated using the coupled-cluster singles and doubles including connected triple excitations model, with the augmented correlation consistent polarized valence double-zeta basis set extended with a set of 3s3p2d1f1g midbond functions. In the surface minima the Ar atom is located above and below the fluorobenzene plane at a distance of 3.562 A from the fluorobenzene center of mass and at an angle of 6.

The chlorobenzene-argon ground state intermolecular potential energy surface.

Using the coupled cluster singles and doubles including connected triple excitations model with the augmented correlation consistent polarized valence double zeta basis set extended with a set of 3s3p2d1f1g midbond functions, we evaluate the ground state intermolecular potential energy surface of the chlorobenzene-argon van der Waals complex. The minima of 420 cm(-1) are characterized by Ar atom position vectors of the length 3.583 A, forming an angle of 9.
