EOMCC method vertical excitation energy

As shown in Table 2, the inexpensive MMCC(2,3)/CI approach is capable of providing the results of full EOMCCSDT quality. Indeed, the errors in the vertical excitation energies for the 2 S+, 1 A, 2 A, and 2 states of CH+ that have large double excitation components, obtained with the noniterative MMCC(2,3)/CI approximation, are 0.006-0.105 eV. This should be compared to the 0.327-0.924 eV errors in the EOMCCSD results, the 0.219-0.318 eV errors obtained with the CC3 method, and the 0.504-0.882 eV errors obtained with the CISDt approach used to construct wave functions T ) for the MMCC(2,3)/CI calculations [47,48]. For the remaining states shown in Table 2 (the third and fourth states and the lowest-energy state), the errors in the CISDt-corrected MMCC(2,3) results, relative to full Cl, are 0.000-0.015 eV. Again, the only standard EOMCC method that can compete with the MMCC(2,3)/CI approach is the expensive full EOMCCSDT approximation.
