TLDR
In this paper, the open-shell coupled-cluster method is applied to the electron affinities of Li and Na, which are calculated in two ways: as the ionization potential of the anions or as the energy of adding the second electron to the cations.
Abstract
The open-shell coupled-cluster method and the diagrams needed for its implementation are described. The method is applied to the electron affinities of Li and Na, which are calculated in two ways: as the ionization potential of the anions or as the energy of adding the second electron to the cations. The two schemes give essentially the same results, in very good agreement (<0.02 eV) with experiment. Three-body effects are negligible.
