Re: Using external basis sets

You need to save the file with basis set definition, and make its location known to the firefly executable, as in this example from my SLURM script:
mpirun -n $SLURM_NPROCS   /path-to-firefly/firefly820  -i $1 -o $2  -t $SCRATCH  -ex  /path-to-firefly/ -r -p -f -stdext -b /path-to-basis-sets/AHLRICHS.LIB

And then, in the input file, you can just refer to the basis set name:
$BASIS EXTFIL=.t. GBASIS=TZVP $END

You can download pretty much any published basis set from this page https://bse.pnl.gov/bse/portal, just select GAMESS-US format.

Best wishes,
Michal

Can someone point out a reference that explains how to use such basis sets in Firefly calculations?  In particular, I am looking for instructions on how to setup an input file so I can use these basis sets.On the Firefly downloads page, there are .txt files for several def2-XVP basis sets contributed by Thomas Pijper.
