Acronyms used in theoretical chemistry
synogsis
An alphabetic list of acronyms used in theoretical chemistry is presented. Some
explanatory references have been added to make acronyms better understandable but still
more are needed. ments, additional references, etc. are requested.
INTRODUC'IION
The IUPAC Working Party on Theoretical Chemistry was persuaded, by discussion with colleagues,
that pilation of a list of acronyms used in theoretical chemistry would be a useful
contribution. Initial lists of acronyms drawn up by several members of the working party have been
augmented by the provision of a substantial list by Chemical Abstract Service (see footnote below).
The working party is particularly grateful to CAS for this generous help.
It soon became apparent that many of the acron ms needed more than mere spelling out to make
them understandable and so we have added expr anatory references to many of them. At present
only about 20% of the acronyms arc panied by explanatory references but we judge that there
is the need for many more to be added. However this IS a major task and no one person is able to
