What Does CHMO Stand For?

CHMO stands for Constrained Hartree Fock Orbitals

CHMO, or Constrained Hartree Fock Orbitals, refers to a computational technique in quantum chemistry that enhances the standard Hartree Fock method by imposing specific constraints on the molecular orbital wavefunctions. This approach allows for a more accurate description of electronic structures in systems where certain properties or interactions are of interest. By restricting the orbitals, CHMO can effectively model scenarios such as electron correlation effects and improve the reliability of predictions in various chemical calculations.
