David Hirst and Mary Linington used the Chilton Atlas in the period 1968 to 1972.
The Quantum Chemistry Program Exchange (QCPE) started in 1963 pto provide quantum chemistry Fortran programs as a Library for general use world-wide. Several had been mounted on the IBM 7090 at Risley and the IBM 7030 at Aldermaston by Harwell and these plus others were mounted on the Chilton Atlas. A popular QCPE program from 1968 onwards was the semi-empirical CNDO/INDO program (QCPE 141) from Paul Dobosh in Pople's group at Carnegie-Mellon University. This was mounted on the Chilton Atlas and used by David Hirst:
INDO-MO calculations of hyperfine splitting constants for pyridine anions, D M Hirst, Theoretica chimica acta, September 1971, Volume 20, Issue 3. Calculations for this paper used QCPE 141 to carry out INDO calculations on open shell molecules using the unrestricted Hartree-Fock method of Pople and Nesbet.
Mary Linington's work with David Hirst produced two papers:
David Hirst later wrote two books relevant to this area:
David Hirst arrived in the Department of Chemistry in 1965 and remained until 2003 before retiring.
