What Does CCI Stand For?
CCI stands for Contracted Configuration Interaction
Contracted Configuration Interaction (CCI) is a sophisticated computational method used in quantum chemistry and many-body physics to accurately describe the electronic structure of molecular systems. By expanding the wave function in terms of configuration state functions, CCI allows for a systematic treatment of electron correlations through the selection and optimization of an appropriate set of configurations. This method enhances the precision of energy calculations and provides insights into molecular properties, making it a valuable tool in the study of complex chemical systems.
