H. Huber et al., AN UNUSUAL BASIS-SET SUPERPOSITION ERROR IN THE ELECTRIC-FIELD GRADIENT OF THE NEON DIMER CALCULATED WITH BOND FUNCTIONS, Chemical physics letters, 266(3-4), 1997, pp. 388-390
In the course of studies on the longitudinal NMR relaxation time in li
quid neon-21 the electric field gradient was calculated as a function
of the neon-neon distance. A basis set including bond functions applie
d successfully in the calculation of a pair potential showed a strong
and slowly decaying basis set superposition error. The full counterpoi
se correction eliminated this long tail nearly completely.
