# Calculation of analytical second derivatives is requested by specifying:
#   AnalyticalFreq
#   End
# in the ADF input.

# A good quality is specified for the numerical Becke integration to be sure of
# reliable results. In general, it seems advisable to use high accuracy for
# heavy nuclei at the moment, whereas default integration accuracy is usually
# sufficient for light atoms. The precision of the fit may be improved with the
# ZlmFit block keyword.
