[molpro-user] water monomer excitation energy

[Peterson, Kirk]

Dear Martin,

try sym=3 rather than sym=2 (B1 and B2 labels can be a bit tricky. One has to note which corresponds to out-of-plane symmetry in order to match convention)

Also, somewhat unrelated, but it is not good practice at all to correlate all the electrons with just a valence basis set as you do here.

best,

-Kirk

Dear all,

I try to calculate the first excitation energy of water monomer which is nearly 7.5 eV by mrci method,
but from what ever reason i get a very wrong result. I also tested different active spaces but no chance !

memory,80,m
gthresh,energy=1.d-08

angstrom
geomtyp=xyz
geometry={
O   0.000 0.000 0.0
H   0.757 0.586 0.0
H  -0.757 0.586 0.0
}
basis=aug-cc-pVQZ
!---------------------------------------
{hf;wf,10,1;}
!---------------------------------------
{multi;occ,6,2,2,0;closed,0;frozen,0;wf,10,sym=2;state,1}
!---------------------------------------
{mrci;occ,6,2,2,0;closed,0;core,0;wf,10,sym=2;state,1}
!---------------------------------------

Any idea why this is the case ?

Bests
Martin
