We have implemented the use of mixed basis sets of Gaussian one- and two-electron (geminal) functions for the calculation of second-order Møller–Plesset (MP2) correlation energies. In this paper, we describe some aspects of this implementation, including different forms chosen for the pair functions. Computational results are presented for some closed-shell atoms and diatomics. Our calculations indicate that the method presented is capable of yielding highly accurate second-order correlation energies with rather modest Gaussian orbital basis sets, providing an alternative route to highly accurate wave functions. For the neon atom, the hydrogen molecule, and the hydrogen fluoride molecule, our calculations yield the most accurate MP2 energies published so far. A critical comparison is made with established MP2-R12 methods, revealing an erratic behaviour of some of these methods, even in large basis sets.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
