A quasi-Newton algorithm for first-odrer saddle-point location

[en] A new algorithm for the location of a transition-state structure on an energy hypersurface is proposed. The method is compared to three other quasi-Newton step calculations available in literature. Numerical results derived from several examples are compared to those obtained by the two algorithms implemented in the Gaussian package.
