Hello,
you may perhaps like to consider the following (part of) input, that I used for one of our latest projects on the diatomic CuAu, for diagonalization of the SO matrix on top of the non-rotated MRCI wavefunctions. 
What the input does is the following: 1) Perform the spin-free (Lambda-S) MRCI calculations (considering scalar relativistic of course) and switch off the MRCI rotations (SWAP,ROTREF=-1). The rationale for fixing the MRCI eigenstates (SWAP,ROTREF=-1) is to make sure that the diagonal matrix elements (spin-free energies which are taken from a previous spin-orbit free job) in "hlsdiag" are assigned correctly to the desired spin-free MRCI wavefunction. Dynamic correlation might lead to fllipping and/or overlapping between the reference functions. Nonetheless, It is also possible to work with rotated MRCI wavefunctions. But, it requires very much more attention for the correct assignments, because the wavefunctions get rotated and they overlap with each other if large number of states are involved.2) save the non-rotated MRCI wavefunctions using the "save" keyword.3) define the diagonal spin-free MRCI energies that are calculated in a previous (higher-level) job via hlsdiag=[...]. Note that the order of energies given should be identical to the order of eigenstates saved in step one.4) finally, using {ci;...}, diagonal spin-free energies and the wavefunctions to which the diagonal energies are to be assigned need to be written in correct ordering.
I hope it helps.Best wishes.Davood.

I am attempting to calculate spin-orbit energies of a system whose total energies are calculated at the level of MRCI including Davidson cluster correction.  However, calculation of the spin-orbit energies are based upon the MRCI energies without cluster correction.  I realize that it is possible to substitute the cluster corrected energies for the uncorrected ones using the variable HLSDIAG, but it is not at all clear how to go about doing so.  An example of what the input should look like would be helpful.

Could anyone please show me how to do this?

Thank you,

Gerry Hoffman
