description

Decomposing the Hartree-Fock one-electron density matrix and a virtual pseudodensity matrix, we obtain an orthogonal set of normalized molecular orbitals with local character to be used in post-Hartree-Fock calculations. The applicability of the procedure is illustrated by calculating CCSD(T) energies and CCSD molecular properties in reduced active spaces. © 2010 American Institute of Physics.
