Abstract

An approximation to the self-energy operator involving a screened electron interaction, developed from work by Hedin, is applied within the Pariser-Parr-Pople model. Modified sets of molecular orbitals and their associated orbital energies are obtained by a self-consistent procedure, and are used to obtain excitation energies corresponding to the so-called particle-hole type excitations. Calculations on the π-systems of several hydrocarbons are presented which show improvements in comparison with previous calculations.
