Recomputation of the energy of CH2 with DZP
basis at 170° (Table 1 in the paper) showed that the published data
obtained with the 22 CAS reference space are in
error. While the error for the ground state is minor, it is of
significance for the excited 2 1A1
state. Consequently, the reported deviations of excitation energy with
respect to full CI (Table 2 in the paper) are also wrong. The new results
are given in the table below. Note that the corrected deviations of the
excitation energies from full CI results are smaller than those given in
the paper. Therefore this error does not alter the conclusion of the paper
by any means.
All other numbers in the paper have been recalculated and no further error has been discovered.
We thank Dr Robert Gdanitz for pointing out the error to us.
