Vertical excitation energies to valence states of DMS and DMSO.

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]
