β¦ Synopsis
A new definition is suggested for basis set superposition error, Other sources of basis set incompleteness error in the interaction energy are considered. Comparison is made with the counterpoise correction. An explanation is provided for the tendency in water and HF dimers for the counterpoise-corrected correlation energy to seem worse than the uncorrected energy.

Contrary to the statements of Gutowski et al., the difference between the true dissociation energy and the counterpoisecorrected calculation of the dissociation energy is shown to be entirely a non-additive correction for basis set incompleteness.
It is shown that part of what normally is considered a basis set effect on relative energies, more properly may be interpreted as intramolecular basis set superposition error.
Basis set superposition error (BSSE) is computed for the H-bonded system (F-H...F)-by the Boys-Bernardi counterpoise scheme using a wide array of basis sets at both the SCF and MP2 levels. Although the BSSE can be fairly large for the complexation process, it is comparable in magnitude for the endpo
Basis-set superposition corrections to properties of tightly bound systems have been studied. The effects are demonstrated for two different properties: the dissociation energy ofN, and the geometrical conformation of C,. The definition of these corrections is somewhat ambiguous, since the constitue
Special SCF LCAO MO type equations are derived, permitting "supermolecule" calculations for intermolecular interactions, excluding basis set superposition error (BSSE) from the beginning on the basis of the "chemical Hamiltonian approach". (No additional "monomer" calculations are necessary to corre
