Muonic Modeling
I have seen an article[1] that describes a HF approach to working with exotic muonic atoms. I am curious about how far DFT has been extended for modeling muonic chemistry. Are there psuedopotentials ...

What are the types of SCF?
Many of us know the most common types of SCF
(though we can do better than Wikipedia at explaining them):
RHF (Restricted Hartree-Fock), RKS (Restricted Kohn-Sham) [link to answer]
UHF (Unrestricted ...

How to calculate the Fock matrix in the molecular orbital basis PySCF?
I am interested in calculating the Fock matrix in the molecular orbital basis with PySCF, though I am not clear on the methodology behind this task.
In my attempt, I use the following script (for the ...

Hartree-Fock density vs Kohn-Sham density
Hartree-Fock density is free of self-interaction but lacks electron correlation effects, while the density from KS-DFT (using an xc functional or potential, both which are explicitly density-dependent ...

One-center two-electron integrals between 1s STO
As per @user1271772 's suggestion I am asking this question here again.
I am trying to understand SCF cycle by trying to code up solved example from Quantum Chemistry by Levine (page 443, 5th edition)...

What is the mathematical condition that ensure that the self-consistent field (SCF) procedure must converge?
We know that there is convergence issue of DFT method on study real molecular system. It would be conducive if people could pre-determine if the SCF procedure is converge analytically before starting ...

How does the Hartree-Fock method improve on Hartree after considering the wavefunction that takes the anti-symmetry property into account?
I am not able to understand the math of this.
After taking the Slater determinant as a wavefunction in Hartree-Fock, does the procedure to find wavefunctions remain the same as in the Hartree method ...
