It is known that some non-dynamic effects of electron correlation can be included in coupled cluster theory using a tailoring technique that separates the effects of non-dynamic and dynamic correlations. Recently, the simple pCCD (pair coupled cluster doubles) wavefunction was shown to provide good results for some non-dynamic correlation problems, such as bond-breaking, in a spin-adapted way with no active space selection. In this paper, we report a study of excited states using "tailored coupled cluster singles and doubles," to attempt to use pCCD as a kernel for more complete coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) results for excited states. Several excited states are explored from those primarily due to single excitations to those dominated by doubly excited states and from singlet-triplet splittings for some diradical states. For the first two situations, tailored pCCD-TCCSD offers no improvement over equation of motion-CCSD. However, when we explore the singlet-triplet gap of diradical molecules that are manifestly multi-reference, a pCCD kernel provides improved results, particularly with generalized valence bond orbitals.

Precisely controlling quantum states is relevant in next-generation quantum computing, encryption, and sensing. Chiral organic chromophores host unique light-matter interactions, which allow them to manipulate the quantized circular polarization of photons. Axially chiral organic scaffolds, such as helicenes or twisted acenes, are powerful motifs in chiral light manipulation.

The spectrum of carbon monoxide is important for astrophysical media, such as planetary atmospheres, interstellar space, exoplanetary and stellar atmospheres; it also important in plasma physics, laser physics and combustion. Interpreting its spectral signature requires a deep and thorough understanding of its absorption and emission properties. A new accurate spectroscopic model for the ground and electronically-excited states of the CO molecule computed at the aug-cc-pV5Z CASSCF/MRCI+Q level is reported.

Many applications of nanocrystals rely on their use in light detection and emission. In recent years, nanocrystals with more relaxed carrier confinement, including so-called 'bulk' and 2D implementations, have made their stake. In such systems, the charge carriers generated after (photo-)excitation are spread over a semi-continuous density of states, behaviour controlled by the carrier temperature .

Introduction: The (EMB) theory, a major causal hypothesis of autism (ASD: autism spectrum disorder), attributes excess androgens during early development as one of the causes. While studies have generally followed the EMB theory in females at birth, the co-occurrence of ASD in males at birth has been observed in conditions that are assumed to be associated with reduced androgen action during early development, including Klinefelter syndrome (KS) and sexual minorities. ASD is also associated with atypical sensory sensitivity, synesthesia, and savant syndrome.

ConspectusWhile photochromic natural sodalites, an aluminosilicate mineral, were originally considered as curiosities, articles published in the past ten years have radically changed this perspective. It has been proven that their artificial synthesis was easy and allowed compositional tuning. Combined with simulations, it has been shown that a wide range of photochromic properties were achievable for synthetic sodalites (color, activation energy, reversibility, etc.
