Abstract
A closed form expression for the evaluation of directional Compton profiles (DCP) from the position space one-electron reduced density matrix expanded in Cartesian Gaussian basis functions is presented. The Compton map, i.e. a two-dimensional contour plot of the DCP function J(q) in a selected plane, is introduce as a convenient method for describing the DCP Examples of theoretical Compton maps are given for the hydrogen molecule ion (both ground and excited states), water, ammonia, ethylene and 1A1 methylene molecules in their ground states. Compton maps generated with Hartree-Fock, configuration interaction and density functional theory methods are compared.
