Abstract
The Coulomb and exchange interaction energy between two helium atoms is calculated, increasing systematically the basis set, by a supermolecular method which excludes the superposition error by using non-orthogonal orbitals. At 5.6 bohr an energy limit of 9.69 K is found at the Hartree-Fock level; for correlated wavefunctions the corresponding value is 11.86 K using only s orbitals, 10.70 K including p orbitals and 10.58 K adding d orbitals.
