[molpro-user] Energy in MRCI-F12 calculation

Dear Somnath,

I think the issue is that the energies saved in the energy and energd variables include the CABS singles correction.  At least with the developer's version (sorry, I don't have the production version currently built), the energies saved are consistent with adding about -0.007 Eh to the energies printed out after the main CI iterations.

I'm not sure how this is handled in MRCI-F12 when you ask for more than 1 root, but perhaps chaos.  If you really want just F12a, then use   MRCI-F12a on your command line and then all should be as expected.

For example: the energy mentioned in the block where it specifies the energy of a particular state, just like "!CI-F12 STATE 1.1 Energy" value is different than if I tabulate it as ENERGY(1).  Similar contrasting values are obtained if I want to tabulate the Davidson corrected values as ENERGD(1).
