Adapted Gaussian basis sets for atoms from Li through Xe generated with the generator coordinate Hartree-Fock method

Utiliza-se o método coordenada geradora Hartree-Fock para gerar bases Gaussianas adaptadas para os átomos de Li (Z=3) até Xe (Z=54). Neste método, integram-se as equações de Griffin-Hill-Wheeler-Hartree-Fock através da técnica de discretização integral. Comparam-se as funções de ondas geradas neste trabalho com as funções de ondas Roothaan-Hartree-Fock de Clementi e Roetti (1974) e com outros conjuntos de bases relatados na literatura. Para os átomos estudados aqui, os erros em nossas energias totais relativos aos limites numéricos Hartree-Fock são sempre menores que 7,426 milihartree.

ABSTRACT The generator coordinate Hartree-Fock method is used to generate adapted Gaussian basis sets for the atoms from Li (Z=3) through Xe (Z=54). In this method the Griffin-Hill-Wheeler-Hartree-Fock equations are integrated through the integral discretization technique. The wave functions generated in this work are compared with the widely used Roothaan-Hartree-Fock wave functions of Clementi and Roetti (1974), and with other basis sets reported in the literature. For all atoms studied, the errors in our total energy values relatively to the numerical Hartree-Fock limits are always less than 7.426 mhartree.
