MRCC/CFOUR interface bug for a single atom calculation?

I am trying to run the calculation of the DBOC using CFOUR/MRCC interface for a single atom. The calculation runs with no issues without MRCC (i.e. if CC_PROG=MRCC is removed from the ZMAT file below),...

Crash of DF-CCSD or DF-CCSD(T) geometry optimization (MRCC package)

I am interested in geometry optimization at the CCSD(T) or DF-CCSD(T) level, with MRCC. The calculation, however, crashes when executing prop: ...

Which programs can calculate corrections to the Born-Oppenheimer approximation?

I need to calculate the electric dipole moment of molecules like HD, in which the electric dipole moment is zero in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation (meaning that it's absolutely necessary to ...

How is "basis set projection" done?

I recently came across something called the basis set projection in Q-chem's manual. What it seems to do is to take the converged SCF in a smaller basis set, and then "projects" that onto a ...

What are Pair Natural Orbitals?

Recently, I came across electron correlation methods that use local pair natural orbitals (LPNOs) or domain-based local pair natural orbitals (DLPNO), such as DLPNO-MP2, DLPNO-CCSD etc. The dynamic ...

Analytic gradient for DLPNO-CCSD

Is there a formula for analytical gradients (for geometry optimization) for the DLPNO-CCSD method? I ask because I know that it is not implemented in ORCA. Maybe PNO-CCSD is implemented in MRCC or ...

What is the largest system that has been studied by the coupled cluster method?

This is parallel to the analogous question about the largest DFT calculation: What is the largest material that has been studied using density functional theory? I assume we allow high performance ...
