A computational scheme is proposed for ab initio calculations of electronic spectra of molecular systems. The scheme is firmly based on the different effects that determine the excitation energies and properties of the excited states. It aims to be accurate to better than 0.5 eV for excitation energ

Abstract
Previously, we have developed computationally tractable, local orbitals techniques for computing the charge density of the ground state of a crystal in the HartreeβFock limit. In the present paper, we extend our previous concepts to the question of the virtual orbitals of a HartreeβFock system. Such orbitals may become useful in constructing the states of excitons, excited states of impurity centers or for LCAO calculations of energy bands. These orbitals also provide a convenient basis for performing configuration interaction calculations. This is demonstrated in a simple case, that of the helium atom. Finally we develop equations for the virtual orbitals which are correct to first order in interatomic overlap.
