| Description | We have carried out reference quantum-chemical calculations for about 100 geometries of the uracil dimer in stacked conformations. The calculations have been specifically aimed at geometries with unoptimized distances between the monomers. Apart form quantum-chemical calculations we have carried out calculations based molecular mechanics, as well. |
