Abstract
The utility of the separated electron pair (SEP) model (strongly orthogonal geminals) is examined quantitatively, for pyramidal and planar nuclear configurations of the NH~3~ molecule. The best SEP wave function computed for each species is capable of recovering about half of the correlation energy obtained by a fairly accurate configuration interaction (CI) calculation, (corresponding to roughly 25% of the total molecular correlation energy). It is illustrated that the model can be systematically extended with only a modest effort to yield more accurate results (about 40% of the total correlation energy). The fact that the corrections to the SEP model have a simple physical interpretation suggests that this model may be a useful starting point for βbrute forceβ CI calculations on larger chemical systems.
