Abstract

A Metropolis simulated annealing based method is developed for the variational determination of linear parameters in the trial function for the ground and excited states. One starts with the ground state and determines the excited states of the same symmetry sequentially, enforcing the relevant orthogonality constraints. The method is computationally economical and avoids explicit diagonalization of the CI matrix. Pilot scale calculations on the ground and excited states of a few members of the He-isoelectronic sequence are reported.
