Møller–Plesset theory for atomic ground state energies

Binkley, J. S., Pople, J. A.·1975·International Journal of Quantum Chemistry

Abstract

Mø–Plesset theory, in which electron correlation energy is calculated by perturbation techniques, is used in second order to calculate energies of the ground states of atoms up to neon. The unrestricted Hartree–Fock (UHF) Hamiltonian is used as the unperturbed system and the technique is then described as unrestricted Mø–Plesset to second order (UMP2). Use of large Gaussian basis sets suggests that the limiting UMP2 energies with a complete basis of s, p, and d functions account for 75–84% of the correlation energy. Preliminary estimates of the contributions of basis functions with higher angular quantum numbers indicate that full UMP2 limits give even more accurate total energies.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
