Abstract

An efficient full configuration-interaction (CI) treatment has been recently developed as a benchmark quantum chemistry (QC) method to study doped 3He N clusters [J Chem Phys 125:221101, 2006]. The method, which uses an iterative Jacobi–Davidson diagonalization algorithm, is applied here to small clusters (N ≤ 4) containing Cl2 as dopant.
