Method o f solution The original two-centre wave function is assumed to have a closed or restricted open-shell representation from a LCAOMO-SCF calculation. The LCAO basis is of Slater-type centered on the two nuclei of the molecule: The atomic orbitals are expanded in Legrendre polynomials around either the centre of mass, or the centre of charge or one of the two atoms. The resulting wave function once orthonormalised by the symmetric orthonormalisation of Lowdin is used for calculating the static potential.

Restrictions on the complexity o f the problem This program is partially dynamically allocated either through an IBM 370/165 assembler subroutine or a main FORTRAN program (present version). The only restrictions are given below. Maximum number of basis functions is 50; the one centre expansion of the potential is limited to a maximum of 21 terms and the expansion of the molecular orbital is limited to 20 terms.

Keywords: quantum chemistry, single-centre expansion, static potential, dipole moment, quadrupole moment, multipole expansions, electron scattering

Nature o f the physical problem This program calculates the one-centre expansion of a twocentre wave function of a diatonic molecule and also the multipole expansion of its static interaction with a point charge. It is an extension to some classes of open-shell targets of the previous versions [ 1,21 and it provides both the wave function and the potential in a form suitable for use in an electron-molecule scattering program [ 3 ].

Typical running time For 200 mesh points, 21 atomic and 4 molecular orbitrals, 15 terms in the expansion of the one-centre molecular orbital and 4 terms in the expansion of the static potential the program takes 42 s on an IBM 370[168.
