Quantum Chemistry by Mark S. Gordon
This note deals with the basics of quantum chemistry, beginning with introductory theory and methods. It covers the Schrödinger equation, the Hartree-Fock approach, the use of basis sets and pseudopotentials. This, along with more advanced topics such as Density Functional Theory (DFT), multiconfigurational self-consistent field (MCSCF) methods, as well as techniques for performing calculations for excited states, introduces solvation models, and global optimization methods, among other things, and discusses in some detail the GAMESS package in computational chemistry. The book provides a good framework for beginners, while advanced students can find appropriate theoretical backbones to support their practical quantum chemical research.
