The total atomization energy of a molecule is the thermochemical cognate of the heat of formation in the gas phase, its most fundamental thermochemical property. We decompose it into different components and provide a survey of them. It…

We are proposing a new computational thermochemistry protocol denoted W3 theory, as a successor to W1 and W2 theory proposed earlier [Martin and De Oliveira, J. Chem. Phys. 111, 1843 (1999)]. The new method is both more accurate overall…

We investigate the basis-set convergence of electronic correlation energies calculated using coupled cluster theory and a recently proposed finite basis-set correction technique. The correction is applied to atomic and molecular systems and…

While the title question is a clear 'yes' from purely theoretical arguments, the case is less clear for practical calculations with finite (one-particle) basis sets. To shed further light on this issue, the basis set limits of CCSD (coupled…

In an attempt to improve on our earlier W3 theory [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 120}, 4129 (2004)] we consider such refinements as more accurate estimates for the contribution of connected quadruple excitations ($\hat{T}_4$), inclusion of connected…

We have investigated the title question for both a subset of the W4-11 total atomization energies benchmark, and for the A24x8 noncovalent interactions benchmark. Overall, counterpoise corrections to post-CCSD(T) contributions are about two…

We present the first application to real molecular systems of the recently proposed linear-response theory for the density-based basis-set correction method [J. Chem. Phys. 158, 234107 (2023)]. We apply this approach to accelerate the…

We propose a non-iterative, post hoc correction to the unitary coupled cluster theory with single, double, and triple excitations (UCCSDT) ansatz, which considers the leading-order effects of neglected quadruple excitations. We present two…

Coupled-cluster theory with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations (CCSD(T)) -- often considered the "gold standard" of main-group quantum chemistry -- is inapplicable to three-dimensional metals due to an infrared divergence,…

We have developed and benchmarked a new extended basis set for explicitly correlated calculations, namely cc-pV5Z-F12. It is offered in two variants, cc-pV5Z-F12 and cc- pV5Z-F12(rev2), the latter of which has additional basis functions on…

The thermochemistry of the carbon clusters C$_n$ (n=2--10) has been revisited by means of W4 theory and W3.2lite theory. Particularly the larger clusters exhibit very pronounced post-CCSD(T) correlation effects. Despite this, our best…

In the context of high-accuracy computational thermochemistry, the valence CCSD correlation component of molecular atomization energies present the most severe basis set convergence problem, followed by the (T) component. In the present…

We consider the thermochemical impact of post-CCSD(T) contributions to the total atomization energy (TAE, the sum of all bond energies) of first- and second-row molecules, and specifically their coupling with the subvalence correlation…

Coupled cluster theory has had a momentous impact on the ab initio prediction of molecular properties, and remains a staple ingratiate in high-accuracy thermochemical model chemistries. However, these methods require inclusion of at least…

In this work, we introduce a correction to the unitary coupled cluster method with single and double excitations (UCCSD) that incorporates the effects of missing triple excitations through a treatment that is correct through fifth-order in…

We investigate the convergence of coupled-cluster correlation energies and related quantities with respect to the employed basis set size for the uniform electron gas to gain a better understanding of the basis set incompleteness error. To…

We investigate the accuracies of different coupled cluster levels in a finite model solid, the 14 electron spin-non-polarised uniform electron gas. For densities between $\mathrm{r}_\mathrm{s}$ = 0.5 $\mathrm{a}_\mathrm{0}$ and…

A major difficulty in quantum simulation is the adequate treatment of a large collection of entangled particles, synonymous with electron correlation in electronic structure theory, with coupled cluster (CC) theory being the leading…

For noncovalent interactions, it is generally assumed that CCSD(T) is nearly the exact solution within the 1-particle basis set. For the S66 noncovalent interactions benchmark, we present for the majority of species CCSDT and CCSDT(Q)…
