What Does CAHF Stand For?
CAHF stands for Configuration Averaged Hartree Fock
CAHF, or Configuration Averaged Hartree Fock, is a quantum chemistry method that combines the principles of Hartree Fock theory with configuration averaging to improve the accuracy of electronic structure calculations. By averaging over multiple electronic configurations, CAHF accounts for electron correlation effects more effectively than traditional Hartree Fock approaches. This method is particularly useful in the study of complex molecular systems and can provide insights into ground and excited state properties, enhancing the predictive capabilities of computational chemistry.
