How does a rigorously calculated electrostatic potential depend upon the computational level at which was obtained p(r) Most ab initio calculations of V(r) for reasonably sized molecules are based on self-consistent field (SCF) or near Hartree-Fock wavefunctions and therefore do not reflect electron correlation in the computation of p(r). It is true that the availability of supercomputers and high-powered work stations has made post-Hartree-Fock calculations of V(r) (which include electron correlation) a realistic possibility even for molecules with 5 to 10 first-row atoms however, there is reason to believe that such computational levels are usually not necessary and not warranted. The Mpller-Plesset theorem states that properties computed from Hartree-Fock wave functions using one-electron operators, as is T(r), are correct through first order (Mpller and Plesset 1934) any errors are no more than second-order effects. 

The ground state 9, (0 of the neutral target atom is represented by a Roothan-Hartree-Fock wavefunction that may be expanded in terms of Slater orbitals [45]. Denoting the triply differential cross section by... 

The coefficients Z> and b in the above expressions come from the description of the Roothan-Hartree-Fock wavefunctions of the particular atom which may range from hydrogen to argon inclusively [45], The quantities A, Q.%, and x are common to both the p shell and the s shell in all atoms, yet they have specific values for the two theories. For the CDW model we have... 

Since the Hartree-Fock wavefunction 0 belongs to the totally symmetric representation of the symmetry group of the molecule, it is readily seen that the density matrix of Eq. (10) is invariant under all symmetry operations of that group, and the same holds, therefore, for the Hartree-Fock operator 7. 

Hartree-Fock wavefunction as a sin e Slater determinant of one-electron functions and then considered the evolution operator, which generates the time variation of these functions. For the present chapter, we believe it is more transparent to deal with the one-electron functions themselves, rather than the c-operators or the evolution operator. Consequently, we work entirely in the Schrodinger representation. 

Although numerical values of and (p >, as well as p(0) can be easily obtained for near Hartree-Fock wavefunctions [16,17], some effort has been done in order to study the general features of these quantities as a function of the atomic number [18,19,20], The easiest way to estimate these comes from the TF model [21,22], and has the important property of providing the exact asymptotic behaviour at large Z,... 

The SCF-MI algorithm, recently extended to compute analytic gradients and second derivatives [18,41], furnishes the Hartree Fock wavefunction for the interacting molecules and also provides automatic geometry optimisation and vibrational analysis in the harmonic approximation for the supersystems. The Ml strategy has been implemented into GAMESS-US package [42]. 

In quantum chemistry, the correlation energy Ecorr is defined as Econ = exact HF- In Order to Calculate the correlation energy of our system, we show how to calculate the ground state using the Hartree-Fock approximation. The main idea is to expand the exact wavefunction in the form of a configuration interaction picture. The first term of this expansion corresponds to the Hartree-Fock wavefunction. As a first step we calculate the spin-traced one-particle density matrix [5] (IPDM) y ... 

With reference to the minima of the radial distribution function D r), SCF analyses [61] using the near-Hartree-Fock wavefunctions of dementi [64] indicate that the numbers of electrons found in the inner shell extending up to the minimum of D r) amount to = 2.054 e (Be), 2.131 (C), 2.186 (O), 2.199 (F) and 2.205 electron (Ne). The results of Smith et al. [65] bearing on the boundaries in position space that enclose the exact number given by the Aufbau principle support the idea of physical shells compatible with that principle. The maxima of D r), on the other hand, also appear to be topological features indicative of shells, their positions correlate well with the shell radii from the Bohr-Schrodinger theory of an atom... 

Conceptually, the most straightforward approach is the so-called full configuration interaction model. Here, the wavefunction is written as a sum, the leading term of which, Fo, is the Hartree-Fock wavefunction, and remaining terms, Fs, are wavefunctions derived from the Hartree-Fock wavefunction by electron promotions. 

Here, V is a small perturbation and X, is a dimensionless parameter. Expanding the exact wavefunction and energy in terms of the Hartree-Fock wavefunction and energy yields.
