In the chemistry of heavy and super heavy element compounds, the influence of spin-orbit coupling is so strong that one has to go beyond one-component (scalarrelativistic) approximations. Since the so-called “fully relativistic” four-component methods are still (much) too expensive for routine applications, the objective of this project is the development of two-component approaches whose computational effort is comparable to scalar-relativistic methods but whose accuracy so good that four-component results can be duplicated. We are mainly interested in two-component density functional and Hartree-Fock methods since these can applied to large molecules. In this funding period, we want to (a) implement MP2, the simplest ab initio correlation method, with two-component spinors and (b) derive and implement a well-founded quasirelativistic theory of second-order magnetic properties. Furthermore, investigations on analytical properties of Douglas-Kroll operators (especially its eigenfunctions) shall be continued.
