We present analytical expressions for the first derivatives of area and other geometrical quantities of polygonal tesserae defined on molecular surfaces. This is a necessary step in the calculation of free energy derivatives with respect to nuclear coordinates for molecular solutes, in the framework of the polarizable continuum method. An application to solute-solvent dispersion energy derivatives is presented.

Abstract
We present analytical expressions for the first derivatives of area and other geometrical quantities of polygonal tesserae defined on molecular surfaces. This is a necessary step in the calculation of free energy derivatives with respect to nuclear coordinates for molecular solutes, in the framework of the polarizable continuum method. An application to solute-solvent dispersion energy derivatives is presented.File in questo prodotto:
