Moment polarisation approach

A different strategy to define a relativistic spin density is the so-called moment polarisation approach [32]. This method closely follows the non-relativistic procedure, where one starts with spin up and... 

There have been many attempts to formulate a procedure to correct for BSSE and both a posteriori and a priori schemes are available [4]. The counterpoise approach (CP) [5], based on the use of "ghost orbitals , is the most common a posteriori procedure. Nevertheless, the addition of the partner s functions or ghost orbitals to counterbalance the BSSE does not provide a definite solution to the problem [6]. The introduction of the "secondary superposition error", upsetting the multipole moments and polarisabilities of the... 

The theoretical approach based on the HNC integral equation is described in the context of ionic specificity. Two levels of description of the water medium are considered. Within the Primitive Model (continuous solvent), ionic specificity is introduced via effective, solvent-averaged, dispersion forces. The agreement with experimental data in bulk or at air-water interfaces is only partial and illustrates the limits of that approach. Within the Born-Oppenheimer model, the molecular HNC equation is solved with an explicit description of the solvent molecules (SPC water). Ionic and solvent profiles in bulk and at interfaces are enriched by short-range osdUated structures. The ionic polaris-ability is introduced via the self-consistent mean-field theory, the polarisable ions carrying an effective, fixed dipole moment. The study of the air-water interface reveals the limits of the conventional HNC approach and the needs for improved integral equations.
