AbstractThe principles of X-ray absorption and photoemission spectroscopy calculations are introduced and the basics of electronic structure theory, including the Hartree–Fock approximation, density functional theory, its time-dependent version and quasiparticle theory are reviewed on an elementary level. Emphasis is put on polarization effects and the role played by electron correlation.

Using a second quantized formulation, an approximate diatomics in molecules (DIM) theory is presented in which all three- and four-centered electronic integrals are neglected. To ameliorate the effects of this approximation, the DIM one electron operator is constructed so that the true ab initio first-order density matrix and total energy are reproduced at the Hartree–Fock level. The resulting model was extensively tested for a variety of basis sets for its capability of capturing both the dynamic and nondynamic components of the electron correlation energy as well as the energies of excited electronic states. A modified method in which the DIM one-electron operator is formed from the initial extended Hückel guess of the Hartree–Fock orbitals was also found to produce excellent results.Key words: DIM, electron correlation energy, excited states, semiempirical.

The treatment of biradical chemistry presents a challenge for electronic structure theory, especially single-reference methods, as it requires the description of varying degrees and kinds of electron correlation.
