A Hartree (symbol Eh) is the atomic unit of energy and is named after physicist Douglas Hartree. Atomic units (au) are a convenient system of units of measurement used in atomic physics, particularly for describing the properties of electrons. ... A physicist is a scientist trained in physics. ... Douglas Rayner Hartree (March 27, 1897 - February 12, 1958) was an English mathematician and physicist most famous for the development of numerical analysis and its application to atomic physics. ...


It has a value of twice the absolute value of binding energy of the electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom |W1| or the ionization energy. In mathematics, the absolute value (or modulus1) of a real number is its numerical value without regard to its sign. ... Binding energy is the energy required to disassemble a whole into separate parts. ... Jump to: navigation, search Properties The electron is a fundamental subatomic particle which carries a negative electric charge. ... In physics, the ground state of a quantum mechanical system is its lowest-energy state. ... A hydrogen atom is an atom of the element hydrogen. ... The ionization energy (IE) of an atom or of a molecule is the energy required to strip it of an electron. ...

= 4.359 744 17(75) × 10-18 J = 27.211 3845(23) eV = 2 Ry = 627.509 391 kcal/mol

where: The joule (symbol J, also called newton metre, or coulomb volt) is the SI unit of energy and work. ... An electronvolt (symbol: eV) is the amount of energy gained by a single unbound electron when it falls through an electrostatic potential difference of one volt. ... The rydberg constant is named after physicist Janne Rydberg, and is a physical constant discovered when measuring the spectrum of hydrogen, and building upon results from Anders Jonas Ångström and Johann Balmer. ... Kilocalorie per mole is the quotient of a kilocalorie and a mole. ...

is the Planck's constant,
me is the electron rest mass
a0 is the Bohr radius

Hartree-Fock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1242 words)
The effects of electron correlation, beyond that of exchange energy resulting from the anti-symmetrization of the wavefunction, are completely neglected.
Because of this, the Hartree-Fock energy is an upper bound to the true ground state energy of a given molecule.
The sum is composed of a net repulsion energy for each electron in the system, which is calculated by treating all of the other electrons within the molecule as a smooth distribution of negative charge.
The Correlation Energy (484 words)
The correlation energy increases at stretched geometries, because our definition of the correlation energy in equation (2.10) includes not only the concept of electrons avoiding each other, which is called the ``dynamical''    correlation energy, but also a more subtle effect called the ``nondynamical,''    or ``static''    correlation energy.
Nondynamical correlation energy reflects the inadequacy of a single reference in describing a given molecular state, and is due to nearly degenerate states or rearrangement of electrons within partially filled shells.
The physical origin of the second part of the correlation energy is the dynamical correlation of the motion of the electrons and is therefore sometimes called the dynamical correlation energy.
