Abstract
A comprehensive study of molecular equilibrium structures is conducted to benchmark the multireference coupled-cluster (CC) method suggested by Mukherjee and coworkers (Mk-MRCC). We determine equilibrium structures and adiabatic excitation energies by applying the Mk-MRCC method within the singles and doubles (SD) approximation to ground and excited states of various small and medium-sized molecules. The results are compared to those obtained using other multireference or single-reference CC methods. For most molecules with a multireference ground state, it is found that equilibrium structures and excitation energies computed at the Mk-MRCCSD, equation-of-motion CCSD, multireference averaged-quadratic CC, and CCSD(T) levels of theory qualitatively agree, while the single-reference CCSD method often leads to distinctly different results.
