Comparison of electronic properties of atoms with d orbitals using coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) and self-energy functional theory

ORAL

Abstract

We examine the electronic correlation effects of isolated atoms containing d orbitals by using calculations based on the CCSD and the self-energy functional theories. The self-energy functional theory[1] was proposed originally for analyzing models of correlated systems. We adopt it for realistic description of the atoms by employing exact diagonalization of their second-quantized Hamiltonians. We calculate the single-particle Green's functions[2] to clarify how the many-body nature of the atoms affects on the spectral functions. We also discuss the differences in the spectra between both methods.
