Abstract:Abstract:In a previous paper, we have avoided an infinite order perturbation expansion and obtained a closed expression which consists of the second-order Møller-Plesset energy component together with a remainder term. The applicabilty of second-order many-body perturbation theory with a Møller-Plesset reference hamiltonian then rests upon the magnitude of this remainder term rather than the behaviour of the higher order terms on the perturbation series. In the present work, we show how this remainder term can… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
