Relativistic Two-Electron Contributions within Exact Two-Component Theory
Abstract
The development of relativistic exact two-component (X2C) theory is briefly reviewed, with an emphasis on cost-effective treatments of relativistic two-electron contributions by means of model potential (MP) techniques and closely related atomic mean-field (AMF) approaches. The correct MP or AMF contribution to the electronic energy is elucidated. The performance of one-center approximations to relativistic two-electron contributions is carefully assessed using benchmark calculations of molecular properties.
