Abstract
The Dalton Project provides a uniform platform access to the underlying full-fledged quantum chemistry codes Dalton and LSDalton as well as the PyFraME package for automatized fragmentation and parameterization of complex molecular environments. The platform is written in Python and defines a means for library communication and interaction. Intermediate data such as integrals are exposed to the platform and made accessible to the user in the form of NumPy arrays, and the resulting data are extracted, analyzed, and visualized. Complex computational protocols that may, for instance, arise due to a need for environment fragmentation and configuration-space sampling of biochemical systems are readily assisted by the platform. The platform is designed to host additional software libraries and will serve as a hub for future modular software development efforts in the distributed Dalton community.

Abstract
A simple scheme for calculating approximate transition moments within the framework of the equation of motion coupled cluster method is proposed. It relies on a matrix inversion technique to calculate the excited state left eigenvectors and requires no additional cost over that of the excitation energy calculation. The new approximation gives almost identical UV-Vis spectra to that obtained using the standard equation of motion coupled cluster method with single and double excitations for molecules in a standard test set.
