Abstract

In a previous work Sims and Hagstrom [Phys. Rev. A 83,032518(2011)] reported Hylleraas-configuration-interaction (Hy-CI) method variational calculations for the singlet S ground state of neutral beryllium with an estimated accuracy of a tenth of a microhartree. In this work the calculations have been extended to higher accuracy and, by simple scaling of the orbital exponents, to the entire Be 2 singlet S isoelectronic sequence up through Z = 113. The best nonrelativistic energies for Be, B+, and C++ obtained are -14.6673 5649 227, -24.3488 8446 36, and -36.5348 5236 10 hartree, respectively.
