Abstract
We present nearly local definitions of correlation energy density, and its potential and kinetic components, and evaluate them for several two-electron systems. This information should provide valuable guidance in constructing better correlation functionals than those in common use. In addition, we demonstrate that the quantum chemistry and the density-functional definitions of the correlation energy rapidly approach one another as the atomic number increases.
