We present the theory of the electron propagator perturbed by an external electric field and show how it can be used to calculate a variety of one-electron linear response properties that are accurate through second order in electron correlation. Some illustrative calculations are discussed.

Assuming the Born-Oppenheimer approximation for molecular wavefunctions satisfies the Hellmann-Feynman theorem, Rayleigh-Schriidinger perturbation theory is employed to develop an analytic formula for derivatives of expectation values and second-order properties with respect to nuclear coordinates.

Correlation, positron ionization, and positronium (Ps) binding energies for the ground state (2'1S) of PsLi, PsF, and PsCI together with the excited state (2.1p) of PsF and PsCI are calculated by the second-order variational perturbation method with partial wave expansion.

## Abstract We consider the calculation of firstโorder and secondโorder atomic and molecular properties from approximate groundโstate waveโfunctions by using variational procedures for solving the firstโ and secondโorder perturbation equations. We evaluate the errors in the final results due to the
