Relativistic Gaussian basis sets for the elements K-Uuo

A series of energy-minimized relativistic Gaussian basis sets for the eleme nts with atomic numbers 19-118 is presented. The basis sets have been deriv ed at the self-consistent field level as weighted average energies of the r espective electronic configurations. A spherical Gaussian charge distributi on has been used to model the nucleus. The basis sets are constructed as in terleaving dual family sets with shared exponents within each family. The q uality of the basis sets is better than double zeta.
