Abstract
Starting from the GW approximation (GWA) beyond density functional theory and solving the eigenvalue problem associated with the Bethe–Salpeter equation which accounts for the excitonic effect, I have determined optical properties of isolated Be, Mg and Ca atoms and Na2. In the representation of single electron wave functions, I have used the all-electron mixed basis approach in which both plane waves and atomic orbitals are used as a basis set. The resulting quasiparticle energies and optical absorption spectra are compared with available experimental data.
