In this work, the linear response formalism with a triples-corrected CCSD reference wave function, LR-CCSDR(3), is applied to the calculation of vertical excitation energies of singlet states of the FCO molecule. A basis set of atomic natural orbitals augmented with a series of Rydberg functions has been used in the calculations. A large number of electronically excited states were calculated, and the valence, Rydberg, or mixed character of the states were investigated. In addition, the molecular quantum defect orbital (MQDO) method has been used to determine transition intensities involving Rydberg states. Excitation energies and transition intensities for Rydberg states with n > 3 are reported for the first time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Size-consistent self-consistent multireference singles and doubles configuration interaction (SC)2–MR–SDCI, and linear response coupled cluster of singles and doubles including triples LR–CCSDR(3) methods, with a basis set of ANO’s augmented with a single series of molecular Rydberg functions, have been applied to the calculation of vertical excitation energies of HF in the 10–16eV region. Special care has been put in the description of the valence, Rydberg and mixed states. Some advantage has been taken from the different physical contents of the methods to discuss some assignments. The (4,5) f Rydberg states of HF are predicted at 15.2 and 15.5eV. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Coupled cluster linear response formalism has been used to compute the vertical excitation energies and oscillator strengths of the lowest valence singlet states of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO). Unless for one exception, the results are in very good agreement with experiment, but a new assignment of one DMSO transition is proposed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
