PSI is an ab initio computational chemistry package originally written by the research group of Henry F. Schaefer, III (University of Georgia). It performs high-accuracy quantum computations on small to medium-sized molecules.
PSI3 is the latest release of the program package.
- it is open source, released as free under the GPL through SourceForge.
The basic capabilities of PSI are concentrated around the following methods of quantum chemistry:
- Hartree-Fock
- Coupled cluster
- CASSCF
- multi-reference configuration interaction methods.
Package highlights include:
- Arbitrarily high angular momentum levels in integrals and derivative integrals. (Up to m-type functions have been tested.)
- Coupled cluster methods including CC2, CCSD, CCSD(T), and CC3 with RHF, ROHF, UHF, and Brueckner orbitals.
- Determinant-based CI including CASSCF, RAS-CI, and Full CI.
- Multithreaded integral-direct SCF, MP2, and MP2-R12.
- Excited state methods: CIS, CIS(D), RPA, EOM-CCSD, and CC3.
- Analytic energy gradients for CCSD with RHF, ROHF, and UHF orbitals.
- Coupled cluster linear response methods for static and dynamic polarizabilities and optical rotation.
- Diagonal Born-Oppenheimer correction (DBOC) for RHF, ROHF, UHF, and CI wave functions.
Available Platforms for PSI3
All PSI3 downloads are handled by Sourceforge.
PSI3 is designed for use on any UNIX-like system. The latest official release has been tested in the following environments:
- Linux on x86, x86_64, IA64 (Itanium2), and PPC
- Mac OS X (Darwin) on PPC (G4 and G5) and Intel processors (MacPro)
- SGI Altix
- IBM AIX 5.x on PPC
For more information on prerequisites and how to compile PSI3 refer to the installation manual.
