2x Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3 CPUs and GeForce GTX 1080 Ti GPUs are used for computations. In order to keep the notation short ADC(2) refers to ADC(2)/def2-SVP, CASSCF to CASSCF(10,9)/ano-rcc-vDZP, CASPT2 to MS-CASPT2(10,9)/ano-rcc-vDZP, and TDDFT to TDDFT/B3LYP/def2-SVP. The programs Turbomole672 (for ADC(2)), openMolcas310 (for CASSCF and CASPT2), and ORCA673 (for TDDFT) were used.
