Abstract
A reduced first order density matrix for the Be ground state is computed from an extensive configuration interaction (CI) wave function. A sequence of increasingly accurate CI wave functions Ξ¦__~q~__ converging towards the exact Ξ¨ is used to assess the quality of the results which include approximate bounds for the overlaps γΞ¦__~q~__|Ξ¨γ, electronβnuclear coalescence cusp data, Weinhold's overlap between density matrices, virial ratios, occupation number spectra, and some expectation values. The nuclear magnetic shielding constant and the molar diamagnetic susceptibility are determined with 2.0 and 1.5% of uncertainty, respectively.

## Abstract It is pointed out that the density matrices of the ground state contain valuable information concerning the calculation of particleβhole excited states. As an illustration, results on the nuclei ^16^O, ^20^Ne, and ^28^Si are presented, using small model spaces.
