Abstract:
A method of calculation of expectation values of dipole and quadrupole moments with wavefunctions, corresponding to linearly approximated explicitly correlated coupled-cluster singles and doubles [CCSD(F12)] model has been formulated and implemented. As a part of algorithm, explicitly correlated version of Λ equations has also been derived and implemented. Numerical tests, conducted for sets of molecules, show that explicitly correlated results for expectation values of dipole moment are accurate up to 0.01 a.u. already at a double-ζ level compared to those in the complete basis set limit. The corresponding results for quadrupole moments at double-ζ level are accurate up to 0.1 a.u., while for the triple-ζ bases errors do not exceed 0.01 a.u.

Electric Dipoles and Dipole Moment
Theoretically, studying electric dipoles leads to understanding why the resultant electric forces around us are weak. Since electric forces are strong, remnant net charges are rare. Hence, the interaction between dipoles helps us understand electrical interactions in...
