Toward Predictive Hydride Bond Energetics with Neural-Network Wavefunctions

Aqsa Shaikh, Lubos Mitas, P. Ganesh +1

Accurate prediction of transition-metal hydride (TM-H) bond dissociation energies (BDEs) remains challenging because of strong electron correlation, relativistic effects, and nucle…

A new generation of effective core potentials: Selected heavy 5d and 6p elements

Omar Madany, Lubos Mitas

We expand the correlation-consistent effective core potentials (ccECPs) library by developing semi-local pseudopotentials and matching basis sets by heavy-elements from (Hf, O…

Accurate atomic correlation and total energies for correlation consistent effective core potentials II: Rb-Xe elements

Aqsa Shaikh, Omar Madany, Benjamin Kincaid +1

We employ correlation-consistent effective core potentials (ccECPs) to perform exact or nearly exact correlation and total energy calculations for the fifth-row elements (Rb-Xe). T…

Fixed-node errors in real space quantum Monte Carlo at high densities: closed-shell atomic correlation energies

Lubos Mitas

We consider non-relativistic electron correlation energies of heavy noble gas atoms including the superheavy element Og. The corresponding data enables us to quantify fixed-node er…
