Please help me. This is the input file #P cis(direct)/6-31+G** density=current opt=z-matrix gfinput iop(6/7=3) test > from the output file I get the following informations first, Excitation energies and oscillator strengths: Excited State 1: Singlet-A' 3.8548 eV 321.63 nm f=0.5311 62 -> 63 0.52533 62 -> 65 -0.41883 This state for optimization and/or second-order correction. Total Energy, E(CIS) = -794.462358789 The other two excited states is useless for my question, so I don¡¯t copy it. My question is whether E(CIS) = -794.462358789 is the energy of the first excited state in cis/6-31£«G** level. Second, in the last of the output file, I get HF=-794.604021. what is the meaning of it, whether this one is the energy of the first excited state. What is the meaning of HF. In conclusion, E(CIS) = -794.462358789 and HF=-794.604021, which one is the energy of the first excited state in cis/6-31£«G** level.
