Abstract
As the relativistic corrections become stronger for late-row elements, the fully perturbative treatment of spin-orbit coupling and dynamic correlation may become inadequate for accurate descriptions of chemical properties. In this work, we introduce a determinant-based Kramers-unrestricted exact-two-component multireference second-order perturbation (X2C-MRPT2) method which variationally includes relativistic corrections with a perturbative dynamic correlation. The restricted active space partitioning scheme is employed to provide an adjustable correlation space for the second-order perturbation treatment. The multistate perturbation theory is also developed to improve the descriptions of ground and excited states. Benchmark studies of atomic fine-structure splittings and spectroscopic constants of molecular monohydrides using X2C-MRPT2 are compared to the other perturbative and variational approaches. The results suggest that X2C-MRPT2 is a highly accurate alternative to the fully variational multireference configuration interaction method at only a small fraction of the computational cost.

Abstract
The Ghent Quantum Chemistry Package (GQCP) is an open-source electronic structure software package that aims to provide an intuitive and expressive software framework for electronic structure software development. Its high-level interfaces (accessible through C++ and Python) have been specifically designed to correspond to theoretical concepts, while retaining access to lower-level intermediates and allowing structural run-time modifications of quantum chemical solvers. GQCP focuses on providing quantum chemical method developers with the computational "building blocks" that allow them to flexibly develop proof of principle implementations for new methods and applications up to the level of two-component spinor bases.

Abstract
While the natural transition orbital (NTO) method has allowed electronic excitations from time-dependent Hartree-Fock and density functional theory to be viewed in a traditional orbital picture, the extension to multicomponent molecular orbitals such as those used in relativistic two-component methods or generalized Hartree-Fock (GHF) or generalized Kohn-Sham (GKS) is less straightforward due to mixing of spin-components and the inherent inclusion of spin-flip transitions in time-dependent GHF/GKS. An extension of single-component NTOs to the two-component framework is presented, in addition to a brief discussion of the practical aspects of visualizing two-component complex orbitals. Unlike the single-component analog, the method explicitly describes the spin and frequently obtains solutions with several significant orbital pairs. The method is presented using calculations on a mercury atom and a CrO2 Cl2 complex.

Abstract
In this computational study, we illustrate a method for computing phosphorescence and circularly polarized phosphorescence spectra of molecular systems, which takes into account vibronic effects including both Franck-Condon and Herzberg-Teller contributions. The singlet and triplet states involved in the phosphorescent emission are described within the harmonic approximation, and the method fully takes mode-mixing effects into account when evaluating Franck-Condon integrals. Spin-orbit couplings, which are responsible for these otherwise forbidden phenomena, are accounted for by means of a relativistic two-component time-dependent density functional theory method. The model is applied to two types of chiral systems: camphorquinone, a rigid organic system that allows for an extensive benchmark, and some members of a class of iridium complexes. The merits and shortcomings of the methods are discussed, and some perspectives for future developments are offered.
