Abstract In this project the Slater determinant that minimises the distance to a correlated wave function will be studied by using computational techniques. This determinant is a potential indicator of the quality of the Hartree-Fock method, and it can be used as a guide to determine which electronic structure method is the most appropriate for a given problem in computational chemistry. This study will consider several molecular electronic systems and methods of electronic structure, and the results should indicate if, and how, this approach can be used in electronic structure theory.
