Interacting Quantum Atoms Method for Crystalline Solids

[Image: see text] An implementation of the Interacting Quantum Atoms method for crystals is presented. It provides a real space energy decomposition of the energy of crystals in which all energy components are physically meaningful. The new package ChemInt enables one to compute intra-atomic and inter-atomic energies, as well as electron population measures used for quantitative description of chemical bonds in crystals. The implementation is tested and applied to characteristic molecular and crystalline systems with different types of bonding.
