Abstract
The Fourier grid method for tri-atomic systems was implemented on four tri-atomic coordinate systems. A comparative study was performed using propagation techniques to obtain the lowest vibrational eigenvalues and the van der Waals molecules. Converged eigenvalues were obtained for the coordinate systems tested. Reduction in the grid size was obtained when the coordinate systems matched the topology of the potential-energy surface.
