Exercise1

Structural relaxation of the Guanine molecule

  • Use a molecular builder to find the initial molecular structure. (Avogadro)
  • Classical Force Field Relaxation (using a built-in engine)
  • Quantum Mechanics Relaxation refinement (Quantum ESPRESSO) (thr=10^-3)
  • Use the xcrysden software to visualize the relaxation path.
