What Does PSSCF Stand For?

PSSCF stands for Pseudo SCF

PSSCF, or Pseudo SCF, refers to a computational method used in quantum chemistry and physics that approximates the solution of the self-consistent field (SCF) equations. It employs a simplified approach to improve computational efficiency while maintaining a level of accuracy suitable for various applications, including molecular structure optimization and electronic property calculations. PSSCF is particularly useful in scenarios where traditional SCF methods may be computationally intensive or impractical.
