Abstract
Efficient integral screening techniques are essential for the investigation of extended molecular structures. This work presents a critical assessment of well-established approximate screening techniques and extends them for integrals over London atomic orbitals, which are required in the presence of strong, external magnetic fields. Through the examination of helium clusters in such extreme environments, we demonstrate that seemingly straightforward extensions of field-free screening techniques as proposed in the recent literature can lead to significant errors. To rectify this, we propose two alternative screening techniques that lead to the desired speedups while still maintaining strict error control.

Åström H, Lehtola S. Insight on Gaussian Basis Set Truncation Errors in Weak to Intermediate Magnetic Fields with an Approximate Hamiltonian. J Phys Chem A 2023; 127:10872-10888. [PMID: 38103024 PMCID: PMC10758122 DOI: 10.1021/acs.jpca.3c04531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
Strong magnetic fields such as those found on white dwarfs have significant effects on the electronic structures of atoms and molecules. However, the vast majority of molecular studies in the literature in such fields are carried out with Gaussian basis sets designed for zero field, leading to large basis set truncation errors [Lehtola et al., Mol. Phys. 2020, 118, e1597989]. In this work, we aim to identify the failures of the Gaussian basis sets in atomic calculations to guide the design of new basis sets for strong magnetic fields. We achieve this by performing fully numerical electronic structure calculations at the complete basis set (CBS) limit for the ground state and low lying excited states of the atoms 1 ≤ Z ≤ 18 in weak to intermediate magnetic fields. We also carry out finite-field calculations for a variety of Gaussian basis sets, introducing a real-orbital approximation for the magnetic-field Hamiltonian. Our primary focus is on the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set, which has been used in many works in the literature. A study of the differences in total energies of the fully numerical CBS limit calculations and the approximate Gaussian basis calculations is carried out to provide insight into basis set truncation errors. Examining a variety of states over the range of magnetic field strengths from B = 0 to B = 0.6B0, we observe significant differences for the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set, while much smaller errors are afforded by the benchmark-quality AHGBSP3-9 basis set [Lehtola, J. Chem. Phys. 2020, 152, 134108]. This suggests that there is considerable room to improve Gaussian basis sets for calculations at finite magnetic fields.

Abstract
TURBOMOLE is a highly optimized software suite for large-scale quantum-chemical and materials science simulations of molecules, clusters, extended systems, and periodic solids. TURBOMOLE uses Gaussian basis sets and has been designed with robust and fast quantum-chemical applications in mind, ranging from homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis to inorganic and organic chemistry and various types of spectroscopy, light-matter interactions, and biochemistry. This Perspective briefly surveys TURBOMOLE's functionality and highlights recent developments that have taken place between 2020 and 2023, comprising new electronic structure methods for molecules and solids, previously unavailable molecular properties, embedding, and molecular dynamics approaches. Select features under development are reviewed to illustrate the continuous growth of the program suite, including nuclear electronic orbital methods, Hartree-Fock-based adiabatic connection models, simplified time-dependent density functional theory, relativistic effects and magnetic properties, and multiscale modeling of optical properties.

Abstract
The increasingly popular GW method is becoming a convenient tool to determine vertical ionization energies in molecular systems. However, depending on the formalism used and the range of orbitals investigated, it may be hampered by a steep computational scaling. To alleviate this issue, correlated natural virtual orbitals (NVOs) based on second-order Møller-Plesset (MP2) and direct MP2 correlation energies are implemented, and the resulting correlated NVOs are tested on GW quasiparticle energies. Test cases include the popular GW variants G0W0 and evGW0 as well as more elaborate vertex corrections. We find that for increasingly larger molecular systems and basis sets, NVOs considerably improve efficiency. Furthermore, we test the performance of the truncated (frozen) NVO ansatz on the GW100 test set. For the latter, it is demonstrated that, using a carefully chosen truncation threshold, NVOs lead to a negligible loss in accuracy while providing speedups of one order of magnitude. Furthermore, we compare the resulting quasiparticle energies to very accurate vertical ionization energies obtained from coupled-cluster theory with singles, doubles, and noniterative triples [CCSD(T)], confirming that the loss in accuracy introduced by truncating the NVOs is negligible compared to the methodical errors in the GW approximation. It is also demonstrated that the choice of basis set impacts results far more than using a suitably truncated NVO space. Therefore, at the same computational expense, more accurate results can be obtained using NVOs. Finally, we provide improved reference CCSD(T) values for the GW100 test set, which have been obtained using the def2-QZVPP basis set.
