What Does ELO Stand For?

ELO stands for Equivalent Localized Orbitals

ELO, or Equivalent Localized Orbitals, refers to a theoretical framework in quantum chemistry and physics that describes the spatial distribution and behavior of electron wave functions in a localized manner. This concept is utilized to simplify complex molecular systems by representing electron interactions and bonding characteristics through localized orbitals that maintain equivalence in terms of energy and symmetry. ELOs enhance the understanding of molecular structures and chemical reactivity, facilitating more accurate predictions in computational modeling and simulations.
