[Wien] Fwd: how to simulate the energy of Oxygen molecule

My opinion is that your first struct file with a = b = 30 bohr = 
15.87531 ang and c = 40 bohr = 21.16708 ang was better expect for the 
bond length as Gerhard mentioned.

I would probably put the O atoms around the center in-between z = 0 and 
z = 1.  In other words, the first atom at:

z = 0.5 + delta_z

where delta_z = [(bond length)/2]/c = [1.208 ang/2]/21.16708 ang = 
0.02853488

Therefore, (0,0,z) = (0,0,0.52853488)

Then, the second O atom I would put at (0.5 - delta_z) = 0.47146512.

Such that, (0,0, 1-z) = (0,0,0.47146512)

Checking the bond length with distance formula [ 
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Distance.html ]:

d = sqrt [(0-0)^2+(0-0)^2+(0.52853488-0.47146512)^2] = 0.05706976
d = 0.05706976*21.16708 ang = 1.208 ang
