Abstract
Today, coupled-cluster theory offers the most accurate results among the practical ab initio electronic-structure theories applicable to moderate-sized molecules. Though it was originally proposed for problems in physics, it has seen its greatest development in chemistry, enabling an extensive range of applications to molecular structure, excited states, properties, and all kinds of spectroscopy. In this review, the essential aspects of the theory are explained and illustrated with informative numerical results.

Analytic Derivative Methods in Molecular Electronic Structure Theory: A New Dimension to Quantum Chemistry and its Applications to Spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the analytic derivative methods for variational wavefunctions, namely, closed-shell self-consistent field (CLSCF), general restricted open-shell SCF (GRSCF) and configuration interaction (CI), were described.

An Effective Two-Orbital Quantum Chemical Model for Organic Photovoltaic Materials

TL;DR: Ground- and excited-state calculations on dimers and two-dimensional arrays of sites using the Hartree-Fock, configuration interaction, and coupled-cluster methods provide evidence for the possibility of low-energy, long-range electron transfer in donor-acceptor heterojunctions characterized by a moderate degree of disorder.

The electronic complexity of the ground-state of the FeMo cofactor of nitrogenase as relevant to quantum simulations

TL;DR: In this paper, an active space model of the nitrogenase FeMo cofactor, proposed in the context of quantum simulations, is not representative of the electronic structure of the FeMo ground-state.

Initial Steps in the Selective Catalytic Reduction of NO with NH3 by TiO2-Supported Vanadium Oxides

TL;DR: In this paper, electronic structure calculations at the density functional theory/B3LYP level (selectively benchmarked by CCSD(T)) were performed on neutral and protonated monomer and dimer clusters of vanadium o

Probing the smallest molecular model of MoS2 catalyst: S2 units in the MoS(-/0 (n = 1-5) clusters.

TL;DR: It is found that the additional sulfur atoms have a tendency to successively occupy the terminal sites in the sequential sulfidation until the Mo reaches its maximum oxidation sate of +6.

A full coupled‐cluster singles and doubles model: The inclusion of disconnected triples

TL;DR: The coupled cluster singles and doubles model (CCSD) as discussed by the authors is derived algebraically, presenting the full set of equations for a general reference function explicitly in spin-orbital form, and the computational implementation of the CCSD model, which involves cubic and quartic terms, is discussed and results are compared with full CI calculations for H2O and BeH2.
