Other projects:
- SpecDis is a handy tool to proces
s the results of quantum-chemical ECD/UV, ORD, or VCD/IR calculations. It directly reads the output from many software packages like ORCA, Gaussian03/09/16, Turbomole, NWChem, ADF, DALTON.
SpecDis can plot up to 5 spectra in the same window, adjust banwidth and shift interactively, compare with experimental data (also quantitatively), simply estimate g-factors, calculate Boltzmann averages, export xy data or graphics, and many other features.
Release v1.71 is available.
