Abstract

A special class of models is presented in which correlation effects for quasidegenerate electronic states are calculated without resorting to complete MRCI schemes. The high-spin reference determinant is transformed into the desired low-spin state by the spin flip procedure with concomitant electron elimination or addition. For the given spin flip process, variational equations that define the corresponding spin coupling matrix have been obtained. For the simplest spin flip model presented by A. Krylova as the SF-CIS method, a sequential spin projection procedure has been carried out. Illustrative calculations for the excited and dissociative states of small molecules have revealed the high quality of the suggested approximate schemes.
