TLDR
Specific developments discussed include fast methods for density functional theory calculations, linear scaling evaluation of energies, NMR chemical shifts and electric properties, fast auxiliary basis function methods for correlated energies and gradients, equation-of-motion coupled cluster methods for ground and excited states, geminal wavefunctions, embedding methods and techniques for exploring potential energy surfaces.
Abstract
Advances in theory and algorithms for electronic structure calculations must be incorporated into program packages to enable them to become routinely used by the broader chemical community. This work reviews advances made over the past five years or so that constitute the major improvements contained in a new release of the Q-Chem quantum chemistry package, together with illustrative timings and applications. Specific developments discussed include fast methods for density functional theory calculations, linear scaling evaluation of energies, NMR chemical shifts and electric properties, fast auxiliary basis function methods for correlated energies and gradients, equation-of-motion coupled cluster methods for ground and excited states, geminal wavefunctions, embedding methods and techniques for exploring potential energy surfaces.

Overcoming systematic DFT errors for hydrocarbon reaction energies

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used non-local van der Waals density functionals (e.g., LC-BLYP0.33, LC-S-VV09, MAD=3.6, MAD = 5.5) to model the dispersion interactions in branched alkanes and compact hydrocarbons.

Origin and TDDFT Benchmarking of the Plasmon Resonance in Acenes

TL;DR: In this article, the origin of plasmon resonance in acenes is described by analyzing the excitation spectrum of naphthalene in terms of configuration interaction, and the strong longitudinal β-peak in the UV region of the spectrum results from a constructive interaction of the transition dipole moments of two degenerate configurations V1 and V2.

The static-exchange electron-water pseudopotential, in conjunction with a polarizable water model: a new Hamiltonian for hydrated-electron simulations.

TL;DR: This work reparametrizing the electron-water pseudopotential for use with the AMOEBA water model, which performs well for neutral clusters and is significantly more accurate than the Turi-Borgis model, for both relative isomer energies and for vertical electron detachment energies.

Magnetic coupling in transition-metal binuclear complexes by spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory

TL;DR: Spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory (SF-TDDFT) calculations not only avoid the ambiguities associated with the broken-symmetry approach, but also show a considerably reduced systematic deviation with respect to experiment and a larger antiferromagnetic character.

Density‐functional thermochemistry. III. The role of exact exchange

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical exchange correlation functional with local spin density, gradient, and exact exchange terms was proposed. But this functional performed significantly better than previous functionals with gradient corrections only, and fits experimental atomization energies with an impressively small average absolute deviation of 2.4 kcal/mol.

Gaussian basis sets for use in correlated molecular calculations. I. The atoms boron through neon and hydrogen

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed study of correlation effects in the oxygen atom was conducted, and it was shown that primitive basis sets of primitive Gaussian functions effectively and efficiently describe correlation effects.

General atomic and molecular electronic structure system

TL;DR: A description of the ab initio quantum chemistry package GAMESS, which can be treated with wave functions ranging from the simplest closed‐shell case up to a general MCSCF case, permitting calculations at the necessary level of sophistication.
