  • Title: General-model-space state-universal coupled-cluster methods for excited states: diagonal noniterative triple corrections.
    Author: Li X, Paldus J.
    Journal: J Chem Phys; 2006 Jan 21; 124(3):034112. PubMed ID: 16438572.
    Abstract:
    The recently developed multireference, general-model-space, state-universal coupled-cluster approach considering singles and doubles (GMS SU CCSD) has been extended to account perturbatively for triples, similar to the ubiquitous single-reference CCSD(T) method. The effectiveness of this extension in handling of excited states and its ability to account for the static and nondynamic correlation effects when considering spin- and/or space-symmetry degenerate levels within the spin-orbital formalism is examined on the example of low-lying excitation energies of the C2, N2, and CO molecules and a comparison is made with the (N,N)-CCSD method used for the same purpose. It is shown that while the triple corrections are very effective in improving the absolute energies, they have only a modest effect on the corresponding excitation energies, which may be even detrimental if both the ground- and excited-state levels cannot be given a balanced treatment. While the triple corrections help to avoid the symmetry-breaking effects arising due to the use of the spin-orbital formalism, they are much less effective in this regard than the (N,N)-CCSD approach.
