Title: DFT Treatment of O2 and H2O2
Post by: Zaphod_B on August 10, 2020, 08:41:09 AM
In a previous post, I asked about why DFT is notoriously bad at calculating the electronic structure of ground-state (triplet) O2. I now know that the disparity from reality arises from electron self-interaction error.

Is such an error also present in other dioxygen-like species, such as H2O2?
