A generalization of the coupled cluster (CC) singles, doubles, and a hybrid treatment of connected triples [denoted as CCSD(T)-h] [Shen et al., J. Chem. Phys. 132, 114115 (2010)] to the restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF) reference is presented. In this approach, active (or pseudoactive) RHF orbitals are constructed automatically by performing unitary transformations of canonical RHF orbitals so that...

We have calculated XH-stretching (where X=O, C, F, Cl) fundamental and overtone transitions for three diatomics and a few small molecules using a local mode model. The potential energy curves and dipole moment functions are calculated using the recently developed explicitly correlated coupled cluster with single doubles and perturbative triples theory [CCSD(T)-F12] with the associated VXZ-F12 (...

Three new multicoefficient correlation methods (MCCMs) called BMC-QCISD, BMC-CCSD, and BMC-CCSD-C are optimized against 274 data that include atomization energies, electron affinities, ionization potentials, and reaction barrier heights. A new basis set called 6-31B(d) is developed and used as part of the new methods. BMC-QCISD has mean unsigned errors in calculating atomization energies per bo...

We evaluate the performance of density cumulant functional theory (DCT) for capturing static correlation effects. In particular, we examine systems with significant multideterminant character of the electronic wave function, such as the beryllium dimer, diatomic carbon, m-benzyne, 2,6-pyridyne, twisted ethylene, as well as the barrier for double-bond migration in cyclobutadiene. We compute mole...

Submitted for the MAR09 Meeting of The American Physical Society Local Correlation Calculations Using Standard and Renormalized Coupled-Cluster Methods PIOTR PIECUCH, WEI LI, JEFFREY GOUR, Department of Chemistry, Michigan State University — Local correlation variants of the coupled-cluster (CC) theory with singles and doubles (CCSD) and CC methods with singles, doubles, and non-iterative tripl...

the structural and energetic characteristics of o3–h2o complexes have been investigated by means of b3lyp, mp2, mp4(sdtq), ccsd(t) and qcisd(t) methods in conjunction with the aug-cc-pvdz and aug-cc-pvtz basis sets. six conformers were found for the o3–h2o complex. two different intermolecular interactions were expected to participate in the formation of complexes, namely conventional o∙∙∙h hyd...

The energy at sixth-order Mnller-Plesset (MP6) perturbation theory is given and dissected into 36 sizeconsistent energy contributions resulting from single ( S ) , double ( D), triple (T ), quadruple ( Q ) , pentuple (P), and hextuple (H) excitations. It is shown that MP6 is an O ( N 9 ) method, but less costly approximations to M P ~ are possible. M P ~ is used to analyze and compare coupled c...
