What Does ANMO Stand For?

ANMO stands for Average Natural Molecular Orbital

ANMO, or Average Natural Molecular Orbital, refers to a theoretical framework used in quantum chemistry to describe the electronic structure of molecules. It represents a simplified and averaged approach to molecular orbitals, allowing for a more straightforward interpretation of electron distribution within a molecule. ANMOs help in analyzing and visualizing molecular properties by providing a set of orbitals that effectively capture the characteristics of the electron density in a way that is computationally efficient and conducive to chemical intuition.
