Preferred Label : correlation energy;
IUPAC definition : The difference between the Hartree–Fock energy calculated for a system and the exact
non-relativistic energy of that system. The correlation energy arises from the approximate
representation of the electron-electron repulsions in the Hartree–Fock method.;
