[molpro-user] CCSD Electron Density Calculations?

According to the manual (in my version it is page 170) the following 
one-electron density matrices are available in Molpro:

MP2, QCISD, QCISD(T)

CCSD, 2 kinds: unrelaxed is possible with frozen core electrons;
                relaxed is possible if all electrons are correlated.

MP3 density matrix is also possible, but - as in the CCSD case - only if 
all electrons are correlated.

Additionally, there are XCCSD-type density matrices, see p. 177 for 
details.

Best wishes,

Tatiana
