Abstract

Fock space (FS) multi-reference (MR) coupled-cluster (CC) has been established to be state-of-the-art method for energies of open-shell radicals, ionized, electron attached states and excited states. Due to the multi-root nature of the method, the linear response of MRCC, however, is non-trivial. Constrained variation approach (CVA) makes it plausible to calculate response of the MRCC method efficiently. However, the approach is used for only one root of the problem at a time. In the present article, we make first implementation of the approach and present test results of dipole moments of small radicals. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
