that will be used to transform the Fock matrixFtoF^0 and to convert the transformed
coefficient matrixC^0 toC(Eqs.5.67–5.70). The integrals are those required for
Hcore, the one-electron part of the elementsFrsofF, and the two-electron repulsion
integrals (rs|tu), (ru|ts) (Eq.5.82), as well as the overlap integrals, which are needed
to calculate the overlap matrixS and thus the orthogonalizing matrix S#1/2
(Eq.5.67).
Efficient methods have been developed for calculating these integrals [ 32 ] and
their values will simply be given later. For our calculation the elementsFrsof the
Fock matrix (Eq.5.82) are conveniently written

HereHcore(1) has been dissected into a kinetic energy integral Tand two
potential energy integrals,V(H) andV(He). From the definition of the operator
H^core(Eq.5.64¼5.19) and the Roothaan–Hall expression for the integralHcore
(Eq.5.79) we see that (the (1) emphasizes that these integrals involve the coordi-
nates of only one electron):
