Intraatomic correlation effects for the He–He dispersion and exchange–dispersion energies using explicitly correlated Gaussian geminals

The coupling of the intermolecular interaction with the intramolecular correlation effects is considered using the coupled cluster (CC) formalism. The CC equations for the dispersion energy are presented and their relation to the double perturbation theory is analyzed. An approximate scheme based on partial decoupling of the CC equations is applied for the He–He interaction. Numerical results are obtained using explicitly correlated Gaussian geminal basis set. They confirm the importance of the intraatomic (apparent) correlation effects and agree very well with the experimentally derived potential.
