Abstract

An automated implementation of the active-space coupled-cluster (CC) and equation-of-motion (EOM) CC methods with all singles and doubles, and triples defined via active orbitals (CCSDt, EOMCCSDt) employing Tensor Contraction Engine (TCE), is reported. The TCE-generated CCSDt/ codes are parallel and applicable to closed-and open-shell references. The effectiveness of the new code in describing electronic quasi-degeneracies is illustrated by the CCSDt / EOMCCSDt) calculations for the challenging Be3system, which is characterized by a large number of low-lying excited states dominated by two-electron transitions and significant high order correlation effects in the ground electronic state. Different strategies for defining triple excitation s within the CCSDt / EOMCCSDt) approach are discussed.
