Local spin: A treatment beyond single determinant wave functions

This Letter describes a partitioning of the expectation value 〈 over(S, ^) 2 〉 of an N-electron system (molecule, ion, radical, etc.) into one- and two-center contributions. The proposal is valid for both independent and correlated particle models of the wave function. Our procedure provides local s...
