    Linked via "molecular orbital (MO) coefficients"

    The fundamental starting point for many electronic structure methods is the Hartree-Fock approximation , which treats electron-electron repulsion mean-field style. The HF method ultimately reduces to solving the matrix form of the Roothaan-Hall equations :
    $$ \mathbf{F} \mathbf{C} \mathbf{S} = \mathbf{S} \mathbf{C} \mathbf{\epsilon} $$
    where $\mathbf{F}$ is the Fock matrix , $\mathbf{C}$ contains the [molecular orbital (MO) coefficients](/entries/molecular-orb…
