Abstract
We introduce an exact-two-component complete active space self-consistent-field (X2C-CASSCF) method formulated under the restricted-magnetic-balance condition. This framework allows for the nonperturbative treatment of static magnetic fields using gauge-including atomic orbitals (GIAOs). The GIAO-X2C-CASSCF methodology effectively captures all microstates within the same 2J + 1-degenerate manifold and their splitting in a static magnetic field, which are not accessible through single-reference-based methods. We also present mathematical recursive expressions for evaluating one-electron relativistic integrals by using GIAOs in the presence of a finite magnetic field. Benchmark studies include oxygen and nitrogen K-edge X-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy (XMCD) for closed-shell organic compounds, as well as L-edge XMCD spectroscopy for the high-spin open-shell transition metal ion Mn2+ and the tetrahedral Mn(II)O46- complex.
