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…

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)…

Since the development of the nonlocal correlation functional vdW-DF, the family of van der Waals density functionals has grown to better describe a wide variety of systems. A recent generation of the vdW-DF family, vdW-DF3, featured a…

Context. In dffuse interstellar clouds the excitation temperature derived from the lowest levels of H$^+_3$ is systematically lower than that derived from H2. The differences may be attributed to the lack of state-specific formation and…

The quasi-chemical organization of the potential distribution theorem -- molecular quasi-chemical theory (QCT) -- enables practical calculations and also provides a conceptual framework for molecular hydration phenomena. QCT can be viewed…

The $GW$ approximation has been recently gaining popularity among the method for simulating molecular core-level X-ray photoemission spectra. Traditionally, $GW$ core-level binding energies have been computed using either the cc-pV$n$Z or…

Our knowledge about the "cold" Universe often relies on molecular spectra. A general property of such spectra is that the energy level populations are rarely at local thermodynamic equilibrium. Solving the radiative transfer thus requires…

We develop a cubic scaling approach to excited-state-specific second order perturbation theory in which the completeness of a local correlation treatment is carefully matched between the ground and excited state. With this matching, the…
