Reduced multireference coupled cluster method with singles and doubles: Perturbative corrections for triples.
The reduced multireference coupled-cluster method with singles and doubles (RMR CCSD) that employs multireference configuration interaction wave function as an external source for a small subset of approximate connected triples and quadruples, is perturbatively corrected for the remaining triples along the same lines as in the standard CCSD(T) method. The performance of the resulting RMR CCSD(T) method is tested on four molecular systems, namely, the HF and F(2) molecules, the NO radical, and the F(2) (+) cation, representing distinct types of molecular structure, using up to and including a cc-pVQZ basis set. The results are compared with those obtained with the standard CCSD(T), UCCSD(T), CCSD(2), and CR CCSD(T) methods, wherever applicable or available. An emphasis is made on the quality of the computed potentials in a broad range of internuclear separations and on the computed equilibrium spectroscopic properties, in particular, harmonic frequencies omega(e). It is shown that RMR CCSD(T) outperforms other triply corrected methods and is widely applicable.
