Gaussian 16 Revision C.01 ((free)) Jun 2026

: Several enhancements were made to the GEDIIS optimization algorithm to improve convergence for difficult geometry optimizations.

One of the most praised aspects of C.01 is the increased robustness of the optimization algorithm. Researchers dealing with "floppy" molecules or shallow potential energy surfaces will find that Revision C.01 reaches convergence in fewer steps compared to earlier iterations.

Revision C.01 is not a new major version (like G16 vs. G20), but it is a critical maintenance and refinement patch. Users migrating from Revision A.03 or B.01 will find substantial improvements in stability and numerical robustness. : Several enhancements were made to the GEDIIS
