In this study, we have calculated single-electron energy spectra via the Green's function based on the coupled-cluster singles and doubles (GFCCSD) method for isolated atoms from H to Ne. In order to check the accuracy of the GFCCSD method, we compared the results with the exact ones calculated from the full-configuration interaction. Consequently, we have found that the GFCCSD method reproduces not only the correct quasiparticle peaks but also satellite ones by comparing the exact spectra with the 6-31G basis set.

We describe the procedure of a self-consistent SFT calculation in detail and perform the calculations for isolated 3d transition metal atoms from V to Cu as a preliminary study. We compare the one-particle Green's functions obtained in this way and those obtained from the coupled-cluster singles and doubles method.
