abstract = {The COLUMBUS Program System allows high-level quantum
chemical calculations based on the multiconfiguration
self-consistent field, multireference configuration
interaction with singles and doubles, and the multireference
averaged quadratic coupled cluster methods. The latter
method includes size-consistency corrections at the
multireference level. Nonrelativistic (NR) and spin-orbit
calculations are available within multireference
configuration interaction (MRCI). A prominent feature of
COLUMBUS is the availability of analytic energy gradients
and nonadiabatic coupling vectors for NR MRCI. This feature
allows efficient optimization of stationary points and
surface crossings (minima on the crossing seam). Typical
applications are systematic surveys of energy surfaces in
ground and excited states including bond breaking. Wave
functions of practically any sophistication can be
constructed limited primarily by the size of the CI
expansion rather than by its complexity. A massively
parallel CI step allows state-of-the art calculations with
up to several billion configurations. Electrostatic
embedding of point charges into the molecular Hamiltonian
gives access to quantum mechanical/molecular mechanics
calculations for all wave functions available in COLUMBUS.
The analytic gradient modules allow on-the-fly nonadiabatic
photodynamical simulations of interesting chemical and
biological problems. Thus, COLUMBUS provides a wide range of
highly sophisticated tools with which a large variety of
interesting quantum chemical problems can be studied. (C)
