New Dimension in Quantum Chemistry: Analytical Derivative Methods in AB Initio Molecular Electronic Structure Theory - Yukio Yamaguchi - Hardcover

In modern theoretical chemistry, the importance of the analytic evaluation of energy derivatives from reliable wave functions can hardly be overestimated. This monograph presents the formulation and implementation of analytical energy derivative methods in ab initio quantum chemistry. It includes a systematic presentation of the necessary algebraic formulae for all of the derivations. The coverage is limited to derivative methods for wave functions based on the variational principle, namely restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF), configuration interaction (CI) and multi-configuration self-consistent-field (MCSCF) wave functions. The monograph is intended to facilitate the work of quantum chemists, and will serve as a useful resource for graduate-level students of the field.Yamaguchi, Yukio is the author of 'New Dimension in Quantum Chemistry: Analytical Derivative Methods in AB Initio Molecular Electronic Structure Theory - Yukio Yamaguchi - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780195070286 and ISBN 0195070283.
