Abstract
AbstractCalculations of a wide range of position and momentum space properties of 23 orbital basis sets for atomic helium are performed to supplement our previous work. The combined results on 94 orbital basis sets are used to demonstrate that, as in the case of d‐orbitals, the least squares error is not as discriminating as other information theoretic measures of overall quality for s‐orbitals. Detailed comparisons suggest that constrained variation can improve the overall quality of the resulting orbital provided that the constraints are selected carefully to complement the bias inherent in the energy expectation value and the functional form of the basis functions.
