A direct method for the computation of energy second derivatives, and first derivatives which require the solution of the coupled perturbed MC-SCF equations, is presented. The two-electron derivative integral transformation is formulated in terms of 3/4 transformed integrals. The optimum strategy fo

β¦ Synopsis
The direct MC-SCF approach for modest active spaces is evaluated for (a) extended basis sets on small molecules and (b) modest sets on extended systems. An algorithm that scales as n,'N' ( na= number of active orbitals, N= number of AO) using Fock matrices appears to be quite efficient until n, gets to 8 where an algorithm that scales as n.N4 using 3/4 transformed integrals begins to become competitive. The storage requirement for the J and K operators in the n,N" algorithm has been removed with the cost of an additional direct Fock matrix construction.

## Abstract To obtain optimized orbitals within the MC SCF theory, the energy surface near a chosen point is approximated by a quadratic function of independent matrix elements of a small orthogonal orbital transformation. The method of a secondβorder oneβelectron Hamiltonian (OEH) is developed on
