Employ the provided input file to compute the benzene dimer binding energy. The provided dimer geometry is optimized already. To obtain the energy of the monomer, geometry optimization is in principle necessary, although the geometry of a benzene monomer must be close to the one in the dimer. This can be done by removing one of the benzene molecules editing the coordinates in the input. Perform a few optimization steps to see how much the energy changes and to calculate electron density (saved as .cube files) at the MP2 level. If energy does not change much, this means that the monomer structure is already close to the optimal. Compare the times needed for one geometry optimization step (energy+forces) for a monomer and energy for a dimer, as well as the relative timing for energy and forces evaluation for a monomer. | Employ the provided input file to compute the benzene dimer binding energy.
