Hello,
There is anyway to compute the transition quadrupole moments between the ground state and excited states?
Best regards.
Hello,

With what method?
A quick survey of the code says this is currently supported with CI-type methods, but it should be straightforward to add to other methods that support transition dipoles.
Thank you. With CI-type methods or EOM-CC. I didn’t find these documentations. Could you send here, please?
Do you know how to search Psi4’s examples? fci-tdm
, fci-tdm-2
, and ci-property
are going to be your starting points for CI-type methods. Naturally, these are computed using the expectation value formalism, not the response formalism.
A quick check indicates that while EOM-CC has all the information it needs to compute transition quadrupoles, it doesn’t. (@crawdad, can you confirm?) On the technical side, the core of the issue is that our quadrupole computation code is in oeprop
, which cceom
doesn’t use for historical reasons. Addressing that would be less straightforward than I thought.
That’s correct that the EOM-CC code cannot compute quadrupole transition moments, but the changes to cceom
to allow that would be straightforward for someone who has the time and inclination.
I have the inclination, just not the time right now.
