# LRDMC Benchmark Dataset for Noncovalent Interaction Systems

This repository provides the **structures**, **wavefunctions**, **pseudopotentials**, and **LRDMC energy data** used for benchmark calculations on a set of noncovalent interaction systems.

The dataset is organized by molecular system, structure type (monomers, dimers, and faraway dimers), trial wavefunction, and lattice spacing.

---

## Overview

The repository contains directories for the following 12 molecular systems:

- `water-dimer/`
- `acetic-acid-dimer/`
- `formic-acid-dimer/`
- `uracil-cyclopentane/`
- `methylamine-dimer/`
- `water-peptide/`
- `MeOH-pyridine/`
- `ethene-ethyne/`
- `ethyne-dimer/`
- `peptide-pentane/`
- `pentane_AcNH2/`
- `benzene-dimer/`

Each molecular-system directory contains structure-specific subdirectories corresponding to monomers, bound dimers, and faraway dimers.

For example, `water-dimer/` contains:

- `water_monomer_1/`
- `water_monomer_2/`
- `water_water/`
- `water_water_faraway/`

and `acetic-acid-dimer/` contains:

- `AcOH_mon1/`
- `AcOH-AcOH/`
- `AcOH-AcOH-faraway/`

The leading numeric prefixes used in the original calculation directories are omitted in this archive for readability.

## Directory structure

Each structure directory contains:

- `*.xyz`  
  Structure used for the calculation in XYZ format.

- `lrdmc-ext-SD-workflow/`
- `lrdmc-ext-AGPn-workflow/`

These correspond to LRDMC calculations performed with two different trial wavefunctions:

- `lrdmc-ext-SD-workflow/`  
  LRDMC calculations using an SD trial wavefunction.

- `lrdmc-ext-AGPn-workflow/`  
  LRDMC calculations using an AGPn trial wavefunction.

---

## Lattice-spacing directories

Each workflow directory contains subdirectories for different lattice spacings:

- `alat_-0.1/`
- `alat_-0.2/`
- `alat_-0.25/`
- `alat_-0.30/`

Each `alat_-0.xx/` directory corresponds to one LRDMC calculation at the given lattice spacing.

---

## Files in each `alat_-0.xx/` directory

Each lattice-spacing directory contains the following files:

- `wavefunction.dat`  
  Many-body wavefunction in the TurboRVB format.

- `pseudopotential.dat`  
  Pseudopotential file in the TurboRVB format.

- `energy.dat`  
  Energy output file obtained from the corresponding LRDMC calculation.

These files were renamed from the original workflow outputs as follows:

- `fort.10` -> `wavefunction.dat`
- `pseudo.dat` -> `pseudopotential.dat`
- `pip0_fn.d` -> `energy.dat`

To reproduce the original LRDMC calculations directly, these filenames should be converted back to their original names.

---

## Notes on the dataset organization

- Only the structure files (`*.xyz`) and the two selected LRDMC workflow results are included in this archive.
- Other workflow directories from the original calculation tree are omitted.
- The directory names were simplified from the original source layout by removing leading numeric identifiers from structure-directory names.
- The directory `lrdmc-ext-AGPn-workflow/` in this archive originates from `lrdmc-ext-AGPn-MP2-lrdmcopt-workflow/` in the original calculation tree.
