摘要: Self-consistent local-spin-density total-energy calculations for ${\mathrm{Cr}}_{2}$ and ${\mathrm{Mo}}_{2}$ yield ${^{1}\ensuremath{\Sigma}_{\mathrm{g}}}^{+}$ ground states with dissociation energies equilibrium bond lengths in excellent agreement experiment---in marked contrast the results of a generalized-valence-bond-van der Waals approach, which used 26 512 determinants, previous local-density efforts. The present indicate reliability local spin-density theory very inhomogenous systems, when sufficient variational (and symmetry) freedom is included.
