The Evaluation of the Wave Function Response Contributions to the Geometrical Derivatives of the Electronic Energy

  • Chapter
Geometrical Derivatives of Energy Surfaces and Molecular Properties

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 166))

Abstract

The expressions for the geometrical derivatives of the energy of MCSCF and CI wave functions are examined. Those terms involving the response of the wave function parameters, the CSF mixing coefficient changes and orbital expansion coefficient changes, to geometrical displacements are analyzed in detail. Various strategies are discussed for the computation of these terms.
