Dear Dalton developers,
I've tried to calculate molecular magnetizability of CH2 (and some other molecules) in the triplet state, however, calculations end up with message:
ERROR reading MOTWOINT in NXTH2M
Is it possible to somehow circumvent this sort of issue?
My inputs are:
<*.mol>
BASIS
6-31G**
CH2 - triplet
Magnetizability
Atomtypes=2 Angstrom Nosymmetry
Charge=6.0 Atoms=1
C 0.000000 0.000000 0.110381
Charge=1.0 Atoms=2
H 0.000000 0.982622 -0.331142
H 0.000000 -0.982622 -0.331142

I also attach the output file.
Thank you!

Re: Magnetizability of triplet state
I think a simple way to solve this is to turn to MCSCF, which for a minimal calculation could be done as:
This corresponds to the same situtation with three doubly occupied and to singly occupied.

Re: Magnetizability of triplet state
Magnetizabilities are not implemented for open-shell SCF, but it is correct that you can run that calculation with the MCSCF code. The suggested input is, however, not completely correct. To get the same wave function as you specified in your input with MCSCF, you should use:
