Can anyone tell how to get <R^2>, <alpha^2> and frobenius norm in QChem ?
Can anyone tell how to get <R^2>, <alpha^2> and frobenius norm in QChem ?
According to the paper, <alpha^2> is just the radius of gyration (alpha = x,y,z) of the ground-state wave function. That’s probably negligibly different from its Hartree-Fock counterpart, in which case you can get it from the Cartesian quadrupole tensor, which involves expectation values , , and and is printed at the end of the Q-Chem job, and for the individual orbitals (and density) by setting PRINT_RADII_GYRE = TRUE. There are also CAP-specific onset keywords in the Q-Chem documentation, e.g., here:

For the W matrix, I’m not sure. Please read the documentation.
