Fundamentals of quantum chemistry : molecular spectroscopy and modern electronic structure computations /

This text is designed as a practical introduction to quantum chemistry. Quantum chemistry is applied to explain and predict molecular spectroscopy and the electronic structure of atoms and molecules. In addition, the text provides a practical guide to using molecular mechanics and electronic structu...
