State Selective Equation of Motion Coupled Cluster Theory: Some Preliminary Results

Abstract: A multireference variant of coupled cluster theory is described that applies to systems that can qualitatively be described by deleting two electrons from a closed shell determinant, for example biradicals, single bond breaking processes, or valence excited states. The theory can be genera...
