Abstract
We present phonon dispersion curves in trigonal Selenium (chains) and zone center phonons in α monoclinic Selenium (rings) calculated with the same internal force constants. Most of their differences in phonon energies can be explained by intermolecular interactions which in both case promote a tetrahedral neihbouring leaving some danglin bonds in monoclinic Se. Long range forces of the Van der Waals type were neglected in first approximation.
