Schematic representation
of an HCI-SCF calculation performed by
the OpenMolcas–Dice interface. In each iteration, the RASSCF module
produces an FCIDUMP file, required by Dice. The two-particle RDM calculated by Dice is then supplied to RASSCF, and the orbitals
are optimized with the super-CI method. Besides standard keywords
required by RASSCF, only one extra parameter
is required, i.e., at least one starting (or reference) determinant.
Two thresholds, εvar. and εper,
can be optionally specified. The default values of εvar. and εper are 10–4 Eh and 10–5 Eh, respectively. For larger active spaces, one
might aim for tighter thresholds.
