The HE, GVB, local MP2, and DFT methods are available, as well as local, gradient-corrected, and hybrid density functionals. The GVB-RCI (restricted configuration interaction) method is available to give correlation and correct bond dissociation with a minimum amount of CPU time. There is also a GVB-DFT calculation available, which is a GVB-SCF calculation with a post-SCF DFT calculation. In addition, GVB-MP2 calculations are possible. Geometry optimizations can be performed with constraints. Both quasi-Newton and QST transition structure finding algorithms are available, as well as the SCRF solvation method. 

Atextbook describing the theory associated with calculations of the electronic structure of molecular systems. While the book focuses on ab initio calculations, much of the information is also relevant to semi-empirical methods. The sections on the Hartree-Fock and Configuration Interactions methods, in particular, apply to HyperChem. The self-paced exercises are useful for the beginning computational chemist. 

Each cell in the chart defines a model chemistry. The columns correspond to differcni theoretical methods and the rows to different basis sets. The level of correlation increases as you move to the right across any row, with the Hartree-Fock method jI the extreme left (including no correlation), and the Full Configuration Interaction method at the right (which fuUy accounts for electron correlation). In general, computational cost and accuracy increase as you move to the right as well. The relative costs of different model chemistries for various job types is discussed in... 

Coupled Cluster and Quadratic Configuration Interaction Methods... 

Practical configuration interaction methods augment the Hartree-Fock by adding only a limited set of substitutions, truncating the Cl expansion at some level of substitution. For example, the CIS method adds single excitations to the Hartree-Fock determinant, CID adds double excitations, CISD adds singles and doubles, CISDT adds singles, doubles, and triples, and so on. 

Comparatively little space will therefore be devoted to some rather recent approaches, such as the plasma model of Bohm and Pines, the two-body interaction method developed by Brueckner in connection with nuclear theory, Daudel s loge theory, and the method of variation of the second-order density matrix. This does not mean that these methods would be less powerful or less impor-... 

The frequency dependence is taken into accoimt through a mixed time-dependent method which introduces a dipole-moment factor (i.e. a polynomial of first degree in the electronic coordinates ) in a SCF-CI (Self Consistent Field with Configuration Interaction) method (3). The dipolar factor, ensuring the gauge invariance, partly simulates the molecular basis set effects and the influence of the continuum states. A part of these effects is explicitly taken into account in an extrapolation procedure which permits to circumvent the sequels of the truncation of the infinite sum-over- states. 

As far as the molecular calculation is concerned, the use of an ab initio method is necessary for an adequate representation of the open-shell metastable N (ls2s) + He system with four outer electrons. The CIPSI configuration interaction method used in this calculations leads to the same rate of accuracy as the spin-coupled valence bond method (cf. the work on by Cooper et al. [19] or on NH" + by Zygelman et al. [37]).

The difference between the Hartree-Fock energy and the exact solution of the Schrodinger equation (Figure 60), the so-called correlation energy, can be calculated approximately within the Hartree-Fock theory by the configuration interaction method (Cl) or by a perturbation theoretical approach (Mpller-Plesset perturbation calculation wth order, MPn). Within a Cl calculation the wave function is composed of a linear combination of different Slater determinants. Excited-state Slater determinants are then generated by exciting electrons from the filled SCF orbitals to the virtual ones ...
