A new formula for estimating the size-consistency error in double-excitation CI calculations is suggested. A generalization to the case of multi-reference CID calculations is also proposed. Both corrections are tested on H20, BeH2 and the model H8 for which full-C1 comparisons are available.

As recently shown, size extensivily of any truncated or selected CI may be obtained by a self-consistent dressing of the determinant energies. This dressing has been implemented in two direct CI algorithms and its efficiency is illustrated on a series of eight-electron problems for which full-Cl res
The four-electron unlinked-cluster contribution to the correlation ener,g of a many-electron atom or molecule is derived for a CI wavefunction composed of a reference determinant and all double excitations from the reference determinant. The resulting formula is valid for small to moderate nambers o
Energies obtained by configuration interaction calculations including all double excitations with regard to the Hartree-Fock reference determinant can empirically be corrected to size consistency using either the Langhoff-Davidson (LD) formula or a formula suggested by Pople, Seeger, and Krishnan (P
