[molpro-user] Diffrerence between molpro and mrcc fci

If I’m permitted a little shameless self-promotion, the Li basis set Peter mentions is available to download from ccRepo - a correlation consistent basis set repository: http://www.grant-hill.group.shef.ac.uk/ccrepo/index.html <http://www.grant-hill.group.shef.ac.uk/ccrepo/index.html> (or http://bit.ly/ccBasis <http://bit.ly/ccBasis> ). Basis sets are, of course, available to download in Molpro format, and for Li you can download in CFOUR format, which is what I believe is used by MRCC. I’ve tried to ensure the correct journal reference is also served up alongside the basis set.

Best wishes,
Grant
